The new Office Manager for NAPE is Linda Austin.  She works typically Mondays and Thursdays.  She can be reached through NAPE's telephone, fax, and e-mail and will get back to you if you leave a message by any of these means.

Linda is married and has two daughters of school age.  She is actively involved in their school as well as in the care of her mother.  She also teaches Sunday School and is active in her church.  She also works occasionally as a face-painter for children's events.  NAPE is fortunate that she is able to work part-time managing the office.

Linda has a degree in horticulture, but has extensive previous work experience as administrative assistant and secretary and has worked in customer service.  NAPE is blessed to enjoy the support of her excellent skills of organization, determination, problem-solving and thoughtfulness.

Please feel free to contact Linda regarding any questions or concerns or if you have ideas or comments about NAPE services.
