I have been with the ATC for almost six years.   In addition to my extensive experience in running a business, I have three teenagers of my own.  This has allowed me to have additional insight into the minds of teenagers and an understanding of what it is that they want from a Teen Center.  My philosophy and that of the ATC is that the teenagers need to feel "ownership" of the Center.  Therefore, planning and implementation of the activities and events is a critical part of the success of the ATC.
