1977, she began working at AT&T as an operations research analyst. 
Throughout her long career Ann has held a number of positions with AT&T 
in the finance, accounting operations, budgeting, long-range planning, 
and human resources departments. In 2007, Ann was named Executive 
Director. She is responsible for accounts receivable management for 
Global Business Services division, which consists of AT&T's largest

  In addition to her career, Ann is also an active member of the 
Greater Cleveland community. She serves on the Board of Directors of In
