Hi Ops/Admin Circle, 

My name is Maureen Tremblay and I serve as the Associate AD/Chief of Staff at Georgia Tech Athletics in Atlanta, GA. My top moment of 2022 so far was returning to the world of college athletics! I took a professional hiatus from 2020-22 to pursue high school teaching and coaching, and I have recently returned to my former institution to continue work in the athletics industry. It has been a joy to come back and reconnect with the amazing network, especially through Women Leaders. The thing I realized most when transitioning to a new profession was that it was so hard to find networks/mentors/allies to connect with and grow with. I am so thrilled to be back in the athletics world because this kind of group is what makes our industry so special! I'm loving the support already from this Engage platform!
