Betty Miller, SSA

“I have spent 3 years working as an Employment Specialist for young adults ages 16-24. During that time, I have helped at-risk youth work towards self-sufficiency. At Summit DD, I look forward meeting individuals on my caseload and their families and walking along their journeys with them towards reaching their goals. In my personal time I enjoy spending time with my 5-year-old son Lucas. I am also continuing my education and working towards earning my master’s degree,” – Betty Miller, SSA

Jackie Sadler, Accounting Associate

“I last worked for Portage County starting out at the Sheriff’s office doing payroll and paying invoices. After about 4 years, I transferred to the Water Resources Department where I was a finance analyst. At Summit DD, I am most looking forward to meeting new people! In my previous position, I didn’t get that opportunity. Although I won’t be having one on one contact with our clients, I am looking forward to helping the providers. I am excited about the Mission at Summit DD and am hoping to get involved in outside activities, too. In my personal time, I am an avid dissectologist (a person who does jigsaw puzzles). I love reading mystery novels by such authors as Agatha Christie. I love pen-palling and have over 15 different people I correspond with regularly, with many being outside of the US.” – Jackie Sadler, Accounting Associate
