Meet Anna
I am proud to be taking this next step on my path. My experience in program development and administration has given me the skills of managing budgets, handling human resources, facilitating collaborations and conflict resolution, and learning how to be an effective changemaker in large institutional bureaucracy. These talents, combined with my passion and dedication to this community make me ready for the Alachua County Commission and I am excited about the opportunity to serve my community.
I have worked with Anna Prizzia for over 10 years on different projects. She has always been able to bring solutions to issues by linking people together and facilitating community involvement. Anna has always been concerned that everyone’s voice is at the table, not just those who speak the loudest. She has been an asset to our community, and I believe she would serve our county well on the commission.
It is time for us to develop a culture of electing leaders who are already tied to the issues that face our communities, doing the advocacy needed to address those issues, and who are already working for solutions!! Anna is just this sort of leader!
Anna is an excellent community networker, collaborator, and leader. She is able to communicate thoughtfully and effectively with diverse individuals, organizations, and institutions to help facilitate change. She sees connections and possibilities where others see challenges and works thoughtfully toward solutions.
Working Foods’ service has been a huge part of our authentic Thai food truck’s success. We are extremely grateful for Anna Prizzia’s guidance for this wonderful local resource. She knows how to provide helpful services for local entrepreneurs such as ourselves. Thank you, Anna. Eim Thai Food Truck, LLC is glad you helped.
