Before joining the Division of Neighborhood Services Donna worked in both federal and city-county government for more than 20 years. From 2001-2006 she worked out of the IPD Media Relations Office as the department's Special Events Coordinator where she was responsible for the coordination and creation of a number of internal and external special events, involving both public and private partnerships. In 2007 she became the Crime Watch Coordinator for the newly created IMPD's Northwest District Service Area. Her communication skills, ability to create and build corporate and community-at-large partnerships, and major roles in organization and project development were most important in helping her to go beyond the goals set for the new district and the community. |
