After receiving hundreds of applications, 80 resumes were selected for initial review. The candidates were continuously narrowed down until three candidates were chosen for a first interview. Two candidates made the last cut and after a final interview, the Search Committee recommended Michaele, who has been with Michael Dunn Center in a variety of management roles for the past 13 years.

Our history and mission, our dedicated employees and the incredible people we serve are what makes MDC special. I’m proud to be part of this team.” said Butler.
