Meet the Menasha Senior Center Clerks !
Cindy
Hello! My name is Cindy. I am basically a lifetime resident of
Menasha. I love our little community and feel so lucky to be working
at both the Menasha Senior Center and the Menasha Public Library.
My husband of 26 years and children are the center of my life. I enjoy
biking, hiking, reading, gardening, travel, and cooking (usually!) Cur-
rently, I am busy converting my traditional gardens into native plant
sanctuaries. I hope to help out the pollinators while helping myself!
I look forward to getting to know everyone in person. It will be so
wonderful once we are past this pandemic!
Priscilla
Hello! My name is Priscilla and I started working at the Senior Center in early March. It is great to be working in the city I live. Prior to working here I was at Mosaic Family Health (formerly UW Health) for 30+ years. I then started working in the Student Affairs office at UW Fox Valley until my retirement in July 2019. I worked closely with people each day and I am glad to have been able to find that opportuni-ty again here at the MSC.
My husband and I have 2 adult children who are both are teachers. We have a Yorkie/Bichon named Oliver who is 11 years old. In my free time I love to walk/run, bike, garden, and go camping. This summer we are looking forward to our daughters’ wedding.
I am looking forward to having everyone back at the Senior Center so we can catch up. Stay well!
Natalie
I started working at the Menasha Senior Center in March after moving back home from Upper Michigan. I lived there for about two years be-fore deciding that I missed Menasha and the Fox Valley too much. I graduated from Menasha High in 2018 and I’m currently attending Fox Valley Tech for Emergency Medical Services. I am hoping to have my Paramedic license by next spring!
In my free time, I enjoy painting, reading, gardening, playing tennis, and exploring Wisconsin. I am a huge animal lover. My family has two Boston Terrier/Pug mixes named Mort and Ellie. I also have a Betta fish named Gumbo.
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone once the center re-opens. In the meantime, stay healthy!
