Hello! My name is Erica Overbay and I am from Pineville, Kentucky. In May 2016, I graduated with honors from Union College with a Bachelor of Science in Media Studies. I am married to my wonderful husband, Jack, and we have a beautiful daughter, Nora. I am very excited to begin working with our community through our children’s programs, and I am honored to have the opportunity to work with such caring and talented individuals.

I love many things in life, but what I love most is the chance to learn and share knowledge with others. I look forward to meeting everyone and I can’t wait to get started on some great programs for our children!
