In her role she serves as the administrative officer for the Board and is charged with implementing policies, procedures, and programs of the Board under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), which includes the local American Job Center and the Workforce Center of Will County – located at 2400 Glenwood Ave., Joliet.
