“Coming on board with ADEC has been an exciting journey from the moment I started. I get to work with various teams that are driven, passionate, talented and committed to supporting all people within our communities. I always really appreciate working where the Executive Director knows the staff and you can have a conversation as everyone is treated equally no matter what your role is within ADEC.
There is always opportunity for growth and learning. The other teams step in and assist my team if we require additional support and that shows the level of commitment towards working towards the same common goals. I get to work in such an exciting part of the business within Capacity Building where I get to network and meet so many people the best part is when running a program and the feedback you get is that your goals have been achieved”.
