ATTENDANCE
welcome Aboard
My name is Sarah Nolting and I started as the Marketing and Communications Specialist in March. I graduated from Tarleton State University in December 2021 with my Bachelor of Science in Communication Studies. While at Tarleton, I was an intern for the Office of Leadership and Student Engagement, planning events and creating marketing and communications collateral. My focus was on Public Relations and Social Engagement. After graduation, I started as a Marketing and Communications Specialist at Cooper Aerobics, a fitness and wellness company in Dallas and have now landed in Little Elm!
My mom, Elaine, is a middle school English teacher and my dad, Mike, works in banking/finance. I have an older brother, Josh who works as an IT Helpdesk Specialist and a younger brother, Michael who is a sophomore in college in Colorado. In my free time, I like to lift weights at the gym, go walk/hike, and spend time out with friends. I enjoy pretty much anything outdoors, lake days, swimming, hiking, snowboarding, etc. I also really enjoy cooking and trying new recipes.
My name is Kennedy Whitley and I started as the Victim Assistance Coordinator in March. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Education from The University of Memphis in 2020. I am currently seeking my Master of Social Work from Grand Canyon University. I was an Investigator for Child Protective Services for two years and a Pre-K teacher for one year.
I am the mother to a four year old, Kayden. I enjoy spending time with family and traveling.
