Dr. Sabrina Sammons returned to Chattanooga, seeking a fresh start, and turned to our East Brainerd Opportunity Center for assistance. With her PhD in Human Services and an MBA, Dr. Sammons was determined to find the right fit but needed support in her search. 

At Goodwill, Opportunity Center Manager Taryn Balwinski stepped in to help. She worked closely with Dr. Sammons, refining her resume, guiding her job search, and preparing her for interviews. “Taryn was a blessing. We clicked right away, and she immediately began helping me find the right opportunity,” Dr. Sammons shared. 

Through Taryn’s guidance and personalized job suggestions, Dr. Sammons secured her current role as Regional Director of TN Valley and North Georgia for the Girl Scouts, which she describes as “an excellent choice” for her career.
