The United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties announced Thursday the hiring of Dana Barrett as its new campaign associate.
Originally from Lynchburg, Tenn., Barrett holds a B.S. from Middle Tennessee State University in Physical Education and Health.
After completing her degree, Barrett served in the United States Marine Corps as a Domestic Violence Investigator in California, Japan, and Korea. She was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal for Superior Performance as well as a certificate of appreciation for exemplary, distinguished performance.
Prior to United Way, Barrett was most recently employed as a teacher at Lancaster Christian Academy in the areas of reading, spelling, language, physical education and community service.
