getDowntown Staff
- Nancy Shore, getDowntown Program Director
I joined the getDowntown Program in July 2007. I have a Masters in Social Work in Community Organizing from the UM. A certified "Midwest convert," I moved to Ann Arbor from the East Coast in 2002 with my husband, Chuck. I am a dedicated community member and committed to promoting alternative transportation options. I regularly bike and walk to work and know the bus system pretty well. I am always open to hearing your suggestions and comments, so please don't hesitate to email me.
