Kathy Adams
I am project manager at Collinwood & Nottingham Villages Development Corp. I have worked here since 2004, but have been associated with "CNVDC" for several years while I worked for a neighborhood business as their rep here. I lived in the Collinwood area for a good part of my life and raised a family here also. I belong to Holy Redeemer Church and although I live in Madison, I am still active with neighborhood and church. I am a widow with beautiful grandchildren and many good friends in my life. I love sports and animals and have a variety of interests beyond that. Cleveland and Collinwod are etched in my heart and will always be my first "loves."
