Additionally, she received a Doctorate in Public Health from Walden University in 2017. She has an extensive background in development and education, which she said she’ll use to further the County’s strategic initiatives.

“As the incoming Training and Professional Development Coordinator, I look forward to creating a robust program for County employees to acquire new skills, sharpen existing ones and cultivate leadership qualities,” she said. “I am grateful to County Administrator Coyle and the Board of Supervisors for the opportunity to serve Livingston County in this leading-edge focus. It is an exciting time to be a part of the County and I can’t wait to get started!”
