Leadership Snohomish County has announced AJ Adamski as its new executive director. She has over 20 years as a teacher and school administrator.

"Throughout my career in education, I have often witnessed the focus on what people could not do. From the simple, 'you can't come late to class,' even when reliable transportation was out of reach for their families, to the racial bias in the qualification process for the highly capable programs that prevented students of color from being admitted.

"As I read through the mission and purpose of Leadership Snohomish County, I was struck with the opportunity to be a part of an organization that focuses on what people can do."

"We are thrilled to have AJ join our team," said Board President Rochelle Lubbers. "AJ's passion for education, equity, and system work makes her an asset at LSC and we know she will do amazing."
