Why Maryland?
I grew up in Maryland and attended elementary, middle school and high school in Maryland. I went to undergraduate school at Albright College in Pennsylvania and then came back home to earn a master’s degree in public administration from the University of Baltimore and to start working in the family business. Our company just celebrated 30 years in the staffing business in Maryland! It’s given me the ability to volunteer and serve on boards in the local community, to pay it forward and assist with the success of community members.
