The NCBC Member Spotlight is a new feature coming to the IMPACT that allows NCBC members across the nation to get to know one another. If you would like to be featured in a future NCBC Member Spotlight, please contact a member of the Editorial Staff. In this issue, we meet NCBC Member Jennifer Mahar!
Name: Jennifer Mahar
Position: Court Services Specialist
Court: Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division – Detroit Office
Time with the Judiciary: 6 years as of September 2016.
How long have you been a member of the NCBC and how do you get involved?
I became a member of NCBC shortly after beginning employment with the court. During this time, I volunteered and became the Local Representative for NCBC. It’s been a wonderful experience thus far, and I am currently enrolled in the MSU program. I am also participating in the mentor program and have learned a great deal!
What is your favorite NCBC Conference experience?
Considering Atlanta was my first conference – I would have to say Atlanta! A fantastic experience meeting colleagues from all over the country, attending the various workshops and MSU classes in person.
How would you like to be more involved with NCBC in the future?
I plan to complete the MSU program within the next year – working on ideas currently for the capstone project. I would love to attend future conferences to meet everyone. Also, I plan to stay involved as the Local Representative and to continue serving on the Editorial Committee.
