Lindsay Boujoulian |
Boujoulian interned with the department while she completed her degree in gerontology at Western Michigan University.
She previously served as director of marketing at Waltonwood of Cherry Hill and Carriage Park in Canton Township and as lifestyle programs director at Brookdale Living in Southfield.
Her experience in planning events, following a budget, managing and coordinating staff and volunteers, reaching out to community resources to enrich programs and creating a trusting, caring environment for families and residents will help in her new position in Northville, officials said in a prepared statement.
Boujoulian was an event coordinator for six Marriott resorts in Hilton Head, SC. One of the events she didn't plan but helped coordinate was the evacuation of 6,000 guests when Hurricane Floyd struck the area.
Most recently, she was a paraprofessional for both the Northville Community School District and Novi Community Schools. It was a position that allowed flexibility while raising a family and giving her experience working with another special population, she said.
Boujoulian is familiar with the intricacies of working with a municipality as she was also previously employed by Farmington Hills, where she developed marketing strategies, secured donations, booked entertainment, administered the budget and managed a staff of 35.
