Employee Spotlight
Adrienne Libby
The WSSB Spotlight shines on Adrienne Libby, whose passion for high-quality braille and commitment to students is evident in everything she does. Because she did not always have access to the best braille materials growing up, she is dedicated to making sure today’s learners have the tools they need to succeed.
Adrienne also holds NLS literary and proofreading certifications, reflecting her dedication to accuracy and excellence in braille production. She shares her knowledge through presentations with the prison braille program and by hosting open hours, creating opportunities for learning, collaboration, and connection.
We’re grateful to have Adrienne as part of the WSSB community.
