Melissa Boyles Season 1 Episode 52

In this episode Sabrina Drago, Executive Director of the Sacramento Regional Transportation Authority shares her experience in shifting from private to public sector and how following her personal priorities has shaped her career, which started in Arizona, and taken her to where she is today. 

We talk about evolving transportation policy, the challenges associated with gas tax dependency, social equity in infrastructure investment, and balancing work and home through COVID19. Sabrina's 90-degree turns professionally have resulted in an unanticipated career path which, while challenging, has resulted in a unique perspective from working for a small disadvantaged business, large AECs, and the public sector.
