The County & Probate Clerk is the hub of all county activity from accounts payable to human resources and payroll, elections to marriage licenses. The Clerk is the Secretariat to the Quorum Court and recorder of their business decisions as well as the custodian of county contracts and other records. There isn't a department in county government that doesn't report to the Clerk with a monthly report, signed contract, or bill that needs to be paid.
I have been the Clerk since 2018 and love it! I have an Associates Degree in Business Admin, a bachelors degree in Independent Studies - Business, and 40 years of bookkeeping and accounting background. While Clerk, I've also earned a certificate in Leadership.
There is always room for improvement. Always! My goal for the next term is to continue to digitize the records in my office. We have digitized/indexed all of the quorum court records, marriage licenses, and many others. I have also made many of these available for public access and will continue to expand that access.
