Jonna Garrett joins the Corridor

Jonna Garrett has joined the Iowa Lakes Corridor Development Corporation staff as the new Business Education Partnership Professional. She is responsible for Business Education Partnerships with businesses and schools in Dickinson, Emmet, Clay and Buena Vista Counties.

Garrett moved to the Iowa Lakes region in August 2014 with her family. She brings twenty-five years experience working in Health and Clinical Education.  Prior to joining Iowa Lakes Corridor, Garrett worked as a Clinical Educator for Agnesian Healthcare in Wisconsin, where she developed education programs, created business processes and trained nursing staff.  One of her greatest joys of working as a Clinical Educator was her role in developing, training, and managing the students and staff.  She initiated a Certified Nursing Assistant school to work program. Garrett earned her degree in Exercise Physiology and Business at Oklahoma State University, and she is excited to be in the Iowa Lakes region.

“I had the privilege of enjoying the lakes area this past summer”, said Garrett. “I have a love for the outdoors and enjoy water skiing, bike riding, running, and I also plan to do a triathalon in the lakes area this summer.  I’m looking forward to working at the Iowa Lakes Corridor and the many opportunities here. I’m fortunate to be a part of the Corridor and I look forward to partnering with the area businesses and schools”.
