The Speaker:
Kathleen Riley is the Judicial Services Liaison for Smart Start in Pennsylvania & West Virginia. Before starting with Smart Start in 2012, Ms. Riley worked for the WV DMV – DUI Interlock Department as a Customer Service Representative, handling DUI clients from the initial phone call right through to the completion of the WV Test & Lock Program. Her responsibilities also included handling all violations reports and working with out-of-state DUI clients, who had a WV DUI requirement. Ms. Riley holds a BS in Marketing from Indiana University of PA and lived and worked in the Pittsburgh area for over 13 years as a Pharmaceutical Sales Representative, which gives her a unique perspective on DUID’s.
