Congratulations to Reina – We Miss You Already
Reina is a valued member of our team at MHAfred, starting as an intern she proved her worth over and over again. When she graduated from UMW, with a degree in Psychology, we offered her a part-time position while she searched for her career position. Today, May 9, 2024, is her last day with MHAfred, and she starts her dream job with the Registrar’s Office of the University of Mary Washington tomorrow. We will miss her cheerful and helpful addition to the office but look forward to her continued support as a volunteer.
