Brenda Barker will join the Ring & DuChateau team as human resources manager beginning February 5. Barker will work closely over the next few months with Linda Russell, who will retire from the position in June. Barker holds both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in the human resources field. She brings to the position nearly 20 years of human resources experience primarily in professional services organizations, most recently with a local architecture firm for nearly a decade.

“Brenda’s depth of experience in developing and maintaining staff in a professional services environment is what really made her our top candidate,” said Ring & DuChateau President Mike McGann. “Her focus on people is a great fit for us and the Ring & DuChateau culture.”

Welcome to the team, Brenda!
