FBA STAFF SPOTLIGHT

Name: Olga J. Williams Title: Professional Development Coordinator At FBA since: June 2023 Education: Florida International University, BA in International Relations; University of Miami, JD Hometown: Miami

Describe your role for the FBA. I am the Professional Development Coordinator and as such, I help bring the different education programs the FBA offers to both students and professionals. A typical day is all about organizing, facilitating and resolving issues. Lots of lists! Favorite thing about the FBA? My coworkers! It’s a bit cliché but very true: I work with wonderful folks who are always available to help and pitch in when needed. That’s something to celebrate and never take for granted! How do you spend your free time? I love to read and to spend time with my kids doing fun things. Whitewater rafting, anyone?

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? Everywhere! I LOVE to travel and always want to do more. Do you have pets? I have grand-pets. My daughter has a cat named Scout and my son has an Australian Shepherd named Nike. I love those girls! What do you listen to on your morning commute? I’m a “music in the morning” kind of gal, and if it makes me smile, all the better.
