The Zonta Club of Jamestown honored its Zontian of the Year at the club’s program meeting on October 16, at the Chautauqua Harbor Hotel. Each year the club selects a member who stands for women’s rights and advocates for equality, education, and an end to child marriage and gender-based violence. The recipient is always a valued member of the club and the community.

She is employed by Jamestown Community College as Senior Student Services Assistant in the Success Center. She is a past recipient of the Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Classified Services.
