Most recently Ms. Medlock has served as Operations Manager for the MBCI Office of Economic Development, where she gained very valuable experience in economic development planning; implementation of educational and workforce development training programs for Tribal members; and data analysis for labor studies, all of which have well prepared her to serve as Director, Development Division.

 Ms. Medlock is an active member of the International Economic Development Council, the Southern Economic Development Council, and the Mississippi Economic Council.

 We welcome Sarah Medlock as she begins her directorship of the MBCI Development Division, and I call upon each of you to extend your support to her as she works to further strengthen educational, economic, and community development opportunities for the Mississippi Band of Ch ctaw Indians.
