I direct the Outreach, Admissions, and Career Transition Services departments at Atterbury and IndyPendence Job Corps Centers. At Job Corps, we provide trade education for young people ages 16-24, helping them earn industry- recognized credentials which lead to a fruitful career. The Outreach & Admissions department recruits new students through outreach and partnership-building, and assists applicants with the enrollment process. The Career Transition Services department works with students as they leave Job Corps, and for a year after they leave, in order to assist them with getting and keeping a career placement related to their trade.

I work at the Atterbury Job Corps, which is a federal education program managed by MTC, for young people (ages 16-24). As Director of Outreach, Admissions, and Career Transition Services (OA/CTS), I direct a team that raises awareness of Job Corps' offerings, boosts admissions, and enables successful transition into careers for Job Corps students. It is our goal to ensure eligible young people know about this excellent opportunity for free career education and technical training, enroll in the training program that fits their aspirations and talents, and transition into a career in which they thrive.
