BELLEFONTE -- Shelley Thompson, a Pine Glen resident, is seeking the Democrataic nomination for Jury Commissioner in Centre County.
Thompson currently volunteers in the Jury Commissioner's office. An elected official for over 20 years, she served as auditor for Burnside Township as well as being an auditor for two Mountain Top churches.
Thompson is retired from Penn State Housing and Food Services. Her position involved assigning students to residence halls, single student apartments and family apartments. In her position she had to meet deadlines, demonstrate extreme attention to detail, possess advanced computer skills, and deal with the public--parents, families and students (domestic, international and couples--including grads, undergrads, and law students). Her peers awarded her the Student-Centered Award.
Thompson, a graduate of West Branch Area High School, has a certificate from South Hill University in intensive job skills. She is looking forward to using her vast experience to compassionately serve Centre County residents who get called for jury duty.
Shelley and her husband, Greg, reside in Pine Glen, Burnside Township. They have four children.
