In this newly-created position, she will oversee signature programs, including Hire Tech, Conexus Interns and A+ Partners. Horton has 20 years of federal and state policy, program and administrative experience in education and workforce issues.

She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in political science from Denison University and her law degree from the Indiana University School of Law in Bloomington.
