HER Career
“I was a small-town girl, so moving back to that small-town environment where the people’s lives that I was able to touch at National Park College, I would see them in the grocery store the next day. I see people all the time that have gone through training programs and now have wonderful jobs, and are business and industry partners. It’s just a very rewarding job to have. In Dallas you’d have students, they would finish and you’d never see
them again ... that’s 10 million people in Dallas. It’s not that you’re not doing good work, it’s just so much more rewarding here because you see the fruits of your labors.”
Embry expressed her commitment to National Park and the future of Hot Springs, noting Garland County’s wide range of possibility and potential.
“I definitely moved to Hot Springs on pur- pose. Sometimes people find a job then move to
a location; I found a location and then found the job. I love Hot Springs (and) to be honest, cannot imagine living anywhere else than Hot Springs. I love the people that I get to work with, I love the industry mix ... the mixture of the different kinds of employers we have here provides a lot of variety which is a lot of fun. I know that probably sounds nerdy to some people, but it’s really cool to me!”
