Juliet Donaldson Thank you to the LREDA Board for welcoming me into the role of LREDA Treasurer. I'm looking forward to using my accounting skills and giving back to this wonderful community of Religious Educators. In 1993 I qualified as a Chartered Accountant in the United Kingdom, training with Price Waterhouse Coopers, and have taken on a variety of accounting roles in both the public and private sectors in the UK. Thirteen years ago I relocated to the US with my husband and four children where I discovered Unitarian Universalism. I enjoyed teaching RE so much I decided to switch careers five years ago and became the Director of Religious Exploration at UU Middleboro, a small church in Southeastern Massachusetts, before moving to the larger congregation of First Unitarian Church in Worcester this year as the Director of Faith Formation.
