Hello my name is Julia Root and I
currently support the City of Cottonwood’s Park and Recreation Department as a
coordinator II for administrative services and senior programming. I have been
in the Parks and Recreation profession for 9 years and have had the privilege
to work in several different program areas such as aquatics, before and after
school programs, trips and tours, and leisure enrichment.
I was born on the east
coast to two parents who served in the military and made our way out to the
west coast where I eventually earned my undergraduate degree at California
State University Sacramento in Liberal Studies for elementary school teaching
and History.
When I am not working I
enjoy spending my time with my husband and two young daughters by going on
walks, camping, or dining at the local taquerias.
My goal is to provide life
enriching programs to create a thriving community with healthy, strong,
cohesive neighborhoods.
