Information That Can Keep You Out Of Jail 102

Coming to AWBO for a second time is Debbie Elsner, a native of Albany, New York and graduate of Maria College.  She and her husband moved to Lafayette in 1976 so he could finish his education.  The move that was initially intended to be temporary, has already lasted 40 years, giving them a chance to raise their son and now enjoy grandchildren.

Debbie's work experience has been in Human Resources and the Non Profit sector starting in 1980.  Many years of paid and volunteer work with the American Red Cross brought her to the role of Executive Director.  Upon retiring, she formed her own organization in 2009, Personnel Matters, LLC.

She works regularly with small businesses, non profits and organizations not large enough to have someone trained in Human Resources.  Helping others and teaching them the things they need to know to successfully manage their staff brings a smile to her face.

And as if one business isn't enough to occupy her time, she has TWO!  Dabbling in making lovely Swarovski crystal jewelry became a business and it has gained her enough attention in other states that she makes beautiful pieces for them to sell in their stores.  Brides seek out Debbie's wedding planning skills and her Beaditude Jewelry to adorn their bridal parties.
