Episode 11: Twila Fisher

After graduating from Lancaster Mennonite High School, Twila Fisher moved to Mexico City and then to Miami before moving back to Pennsylvania and settling in Berks County. At that time, Twila put her education and career on hold to begin a family. When her four daughters were all in school, Twila enrolled in school herself at RACC. “I pursued RACC for myself for the same reason I recommend it to people of all ages: location and affordability.” While enrolled at RACC, Twila received the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Transfer Scholarship, which allowed her to pursue her undergraduate degree at Columbia University. She then finished her graduate courses in eighteen months at the University of Pennsylvania’s Fels Institute of Government.

Twila is currently the director of community and economic development at The Hill School. She serves on six different boards and committees. Listen to her fascinating and inspiring sort on this week’s RACC Podcast.
