About Me
- Tracey
- A native of the Shawangunk Mountains region of New York, I moved to Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania in 2009. I live with my husband, our son, a dog, and two cats. I have over ten years of combined experience in nonprofit and academic administration. I began an exciting new career as children's librarian at the Tunkhannock Public Library in the fall of 2010. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in history and Spanish from Lycoming College and a Master of Public Health in health policy and management from New York Medical College.
