What is your background in city government?
This is my first experience with a government agency; however, I do have an extensive background in accounting and customer service which plays a huge part in my job duties here at the City of Tucker.
Why did you decide to come work in Tucker?
I accepted this position because I was ready for a promising, professional career with a growing team!
What does your position do for Team Tucker?
This position allows me to help business owners in our city complete the required tasks in obtaining licenses that are needed for the business. I also play a part in the municipal court department helping with screening everyone in on court days and taking court payments daily.
What is your favorite thing about working at City Hall?
As much as I enjoy my role here, I enjoy the staff even more. Everyone I have interacted with has been so warm and welcoming. Me being a “people person,” I really like that everyone has great qualities in themselves. It makes for a great work environment.
What is the most challenging aspect of the job?
Remembering that we live in “COVID times” and making sure I am doing my part in following the guidelines to keep everyone safe.
If you weren’t in city government, what job would you be doing?
I am sure I would be doing something in the financial/accounting field. It is an area of comfort for me and I really enjoy doing it.
OFF THE WALL
What’s your go-to streaming service?
Netflix because you can never NOT find something to watch on there. There is usually always something that is binge-worthy!
What was your first car?
Ford Contour. I can’t remember the year and the car was falling apart piece by piece (the bumper was bonded on with duct tape!), but I loved that car and went many places with it!
Where will we find you if you are not here at work?
I really enjoy spending time with my family and going on spontaneous day trips. Other times I am enjoying time at home or kayaking occasionally. I also enjoy shopping!
If you could visit one place in the world, what would it be? Why?
Bora Bora. I love the mountains and I love the ocean, but you can’t really have both at the same time anywhere around here…but you can there! They have hammocks in the water that overlook mountain views surrounded by tropical waters! Sounds perfect to me!
