4/26/23 @ 10:45 a.m. - The Nassau County Record and the News-Leader recently asked their readers to nominate individuals over the age of 40 who are community-drive and have contributed to the greater good of the County. We are pleased to report that the Board of County Commissioner's very own Director of Strategic Advancement, Brandy Carvalho, is a recipient of the 40 Over 40 Award!
Brandy joined Nassau County as the first Director of Strategic Advancement in September 2022. In this position, Brandy leads the County's efforts in increasing public engagement, enhancing civic engagement and improving transparency as a means of creating a more effective, efficient and inclusive government. She also leads efforts to support the annual budget by reducing the demand on ad valorem dollars to execute special projects, programs and initiatives through alternative revenue generation such as fundraising, capital campaigns, grants, partnerships and other non-traditional methods.
Since arriving in Nassau County, Brandy has been busy working with our Economic Resources Director on implementation of the County's Conservation Land Acquisition Management (CLAM) Program and and is developing a capital campaign to raise funds for a new animal shelter. She also serves as a liaison between the County and various agencies engaged in creating and sustaining a health economic ecosystem such as the Chamber of Commerce, JaxUSA and the Nassau County Economic Development Board. Brandy works closely with the Directors of the Nassau County Public Library System, the County Extension Office, the Public Information Office, and Nassau County Animal Services Office to ensure that their activities are consistent with the County's adopted strategic plan and to facilitate efforts to further the department's mission in providing programs and services to the community.
We are proud to have Brandy on our team and would like to extend a big congratulations to her, as well as to all the other recipients of the 40 Over 40 Award! We have a lot of amazing and talented people in our community and we could not be more proud to have one of them representing the Board of County Commissioners.
