I was appointed July 22, 2025
to fulfill Peggy Michael’s term after she suddenly passed
away. It was a great honor to accept this position,
although the turn of events that
led me here – the loss of Peggy - was very
unfortunate. My background makes me
well-qualified for this position and I have learned
and accomplished much in the seven
weeks since I was appointed. I am also working with
the State Auditors for the audit of years 2023-24.
A little about me:
• I am a 46-year homeowner and resident of Swanton Township
• I was former Fiscal Officer, Bill Cook’s assistant for
almost two years until he retired in 2008. I was in charge
of recording and preparing meeting minutes, preparing the
agenda and running the meetings for Swanton Township.
• I retired from Rossford Exempted Village Schools in 2017 after
13 years of service. I was the High School Clerk/Cashier and
purchasing agent for the high school and junior high school.
I was in charge of preparing yearly budgets for the high school
and maintaining them throughout the school year as well as
collecting/accounting/recording all monies brought into the high school
through student fees, athletics, club fundraisers, etc. I coordinated graduation – preparing
diplomas, renting our venue, preparing the graduation program. I also was Freshman Class Advisor and Sophomore Class Coadvisor.
• I was previously employed by Springfield Township in the early
2000’s
as Administrative Assistant to the Fiscal Officer/Co-Cemetery
Sexton. I organized and created a database of the graves in
Springfield Township Cemetery. I researched and identified
44 Civil War graves and ordered new plaques or tombstones
(when necessary) through the Veterans Administration free of charge
to the
township. I built the township’s first
website and maintained it. I was in charge of creating and
designing the township’s quarterly newsletter which
was sent both hard copy and electronically to township residents.
I was also accounts receivable, in charge of hall rentals, and
customer service to township residents.
• I was the Advertising Administrator/Co-op Coordinator for the
Bostwick- Braun Company for 10 years. I won the Innovator
Award for an advertising program I created. I was in charge
of collection/distribution of co-op advertising dollars for
both customers and the company, layout/design/production of
advertising flyers. I also designed and wrote the company’s quarterly newsletter.
• I am well-versed in desk top publishing/graphic design, was
a Notary Public until I retired and have a degree in medical
transcription.
