Tia Murry never planned on working in the human services field.
A graduate of the University of Oklahoma with an English degree, Murry the new joint Department of Human Services Director for Moffat and Rio Blanco County wanted to do something in the English field.
A move to Cochran, Georgia – a town of a little over 5,100 residents to follow her husband after graduation led to a career-long trip down a path of development and service, eventually landing her right here in Moffat County.
“I had a degree in a field where I was rather limited,” Murry said. “My options were limited in that small town, so I fell into social services; I literally fell into it. There was an opening and I needed a job.”
