Roshni Jain tells the inspiring story of Cynthia Williams, an Amara staff member, in the blog post "Born This Way, Cynthia's 28 years (and counting!) at Amara."
"Cynthia Williams has a pretty good handle on the Top 40. When asked whether she always wanted to work in social services, she references the popular Lady Gaga song. “I think I was born for this…Who’s the one who says I was born this way?” Cynthia’s been serving children, teens, and families for 36 years, 28 of those with Amara. As our longest tenured employee, she’s earned the title of the “Amarasaurus,” made official with a plaque she keeps in her Tacoma office."
