Alleigh Weems: Senior Management Analyst @ City of Topeka
Alleigh Weems, Senior Management Analyst at the city of Topeka, described her role supporting the public works department, focusing on procurement, capital improvement, and successful grant acquisition, including a nearly $5 million Safe Streets and Roads for All grant and a $25 million RAISE grant. She emphasized the importance of continuous improvement, professional networking, and stepping outside one's comfort zone for growth, despite challenges like federal funding freezes. Weems shared that a "win" is receiving a simple "thank you" for helping colleagues and that her community involvement enhances her public service. Give the episode a listen and remember to thank your local Public Works Professionals.
