    I am currently the Benefits Manager for Orangeburg County Government.  We have about 650 employees and our County is the 2nd largest in State as far as land mass size.  I have worked for Orangeburg County for 11 years, and my previous role was in Finance as the Financial Systems Coordinator.  I have been promoted and have been afforded the opportunity to advance in my career while working here, it has been a rewarding experience with Orangeburg County.

    I am a National SHRM member and received my SHRM-CP certification in June 2023.  Earning that certification was very rewarding, challenging, and difficult.  My professional career advanced with the knowledge and skills I gained from completing this certification course.

    I completed the Orangeburg Leadership program and graduated in November 2024.  This was a great opportunity to meet leaders in our community and understand all the challenges we all face in different roles in our community and jobs.
