• Working collaboratively on diverse teams to advance county priorities.
• Building and improving community partnerships.
• Advancing legislative priorities through research, analysis, and work on special projects.

Other vital duties include, but are not limited to, fiscal budgeting, detailed research, process improvement efforts, serving as a county liaison for legislative advocacy groups, staffing workgroups, leading special projects, tracking legislative efforts, leading logistics production for Board of Supervisors meetings, planning and implementing community meetings, and providing staff support for Municipal Advisory Councils and/or various commissions.
