Cathy has over 20 years' experience working in workforce development, staffing and recruiting, and training and development.  She has experience on both sides of the hiring desk and is experienced in helping people find meaningful work. In addition to nonprofit work as a job seeker trainer, Cathy has run a small staffing agency helping dozens of potential employers find staff and been a recruiter for Westat helping to staff both large and small projects.


    The 40Plus Monday Speaker Series is sponsored by the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority (FCEDA). FCEDA's Talent Initiative Program provides great resources to connect our 40Plus members to hiring companies, agencies and non-profits across Northern Virginia through https://workinnorthernvirginia.com/.
