Feature Friday: Urban Forestry Arborist Apprentice

“I was loving what I was doing, so I stayed.”

Najjar Abdullah started his career with the City of Milwaukee 27 years ago. He was looking for a job, so he applied to the Police, Fire, and Forestry departments at the same time. His first call was Forestry – and the rest is history.

“I was in the middle of my training, and then Fire called me. But I was loving what I was doing and I’ve been here ever since” said Abdullah.

If you’re:
👉at least 18 years old
👉have a high school diploma or GED
👉and have valid driver’s license & good driving record

🌳Then you can start your career, too, with DPW Milwaukee’s Forestry Division as an URBAN FORESTRY ARBORIST APPRENTICE! 🌳

As our position, the apprenticeship program consists of roughly 3.5 years of on-the-job training & learning to become an Urban Forestry Specialist.

🍀Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! 🍀

For our , we are highlighting one of our own here at the Dept. of Employee Relations: Aoife Roberts!

Originally from “across the Pond,” Miss Roberts joined the City of Milwaukee in late 2020 and has worn many hats throughout the department. She started as an Office Assistant III in DER’s Certification division, then was promoted to HR Assistant in DER Staffing, then to HR Analyst, and is now an HR Analyst – Senior with DER Compliance and Labor Relations.

Some of the work she does includes investigating complaints of potential policy violations, reviewing disciplinary grievances, unemployment insurance coordination, and providing anti-harassment training to elected officials. She also gets to work with the City’s dedicated Employee Resource Groups, Police and Fire unions, and other HR professionals city-wide on questions related to policy.

“I hope to work on the City of Milwaukee by contributing to an inclusive and accessible environment, where all residents and employees are welcomed regardless of race, gender, education, or background. Working for the City is incredibly fulfilling. There are opportunities to learn from some very smart people who truly care about the communities they serve. The hiring process is intended to be fair and objective, and it has been my experience that, as an employer, the City of Milwaukee truly wants to see you succeed,” said Roberts.

Miss Roberts grew up in Luxembourg, her mum is from Drimnagh (a suburb of Dublin), and she has Irish citizenship. Outside of work, she and her partner are involved in the local music community and operate an all-ages independent music venue with their friends: X-Ray Arcade.

On a personal note, Miss Roberts will be marrying a born-and-raised Milwaukeean in May, and the Irish side of her family will be flying into the Cream City for the first time! Congratulations to Aoife and we wish her continued success at the City of Milwaukee!

🍀 Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit! 🍀

🤔Did you know?
As one of the City’s first major immigrant groups, the Irish have had an impact politically, culturally, and quite literally on Milwaukee. In the 1850s, the Irish made up 14% of the City’s residents, and two-thirds of Irish men in Milwaukee were manual laborers. Milwaukee continues to foster economic, cultural, and community growth by championing diverse voices today.

As we celebrate National Nutrition Month, and to be even more specific, National Registered Dietician Nutritionist Day this week, we are honoring two women who are vital to the City of Milwaukee Health Department WIC Program.

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program is a special supplemental nutrition program for families, with the primary goal to promote and maintain their health and wellbeing. At the Keenen & Northwest Health Centers, you’ll find Patricia Muether and Lydia Gonwa-Ramos – Dietetic Technicians – and our .

As Dietetic Technicians, both women complete nutrition assessments for WIC families, provide personalized nutrition education and community resources, participate in outreach events, and help families create and achieve nutrition-related goals.

Ms. Muether has been with the City since August 2021 and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Nutritional Science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

“I love working together with my colleagues and other Milwaukee Health Department programs to provide support and build relationships with families in the community. We help families reach goals and build habits that have lifelong effects. The impact we have lasts longer than a family’s short time in the program,” said Muether.

Mrs. Gonwa-Ramos has been working for the City for a little more than two years. She holds an Associate’s Degree in Nutrition and Dietetics and a Bachelor’s Degree in Applied Health Sciences. In addition to being a nutritionist, Lydia is also Certified Lactation Consultant, providing breastfeeding support to pregnant and postpartum individuals.

“I love working for the City because I am passionate about helping others AND I believe that everyone deserves to have access to nutritious foods. Doing outreach and trying to reach as many people as I can is a way that I can help fill some of the nutritional voids the City has. Whether it’s by connecting them with a resource, providing nutrition education, or giving them nutritious foods in their food package, I hope to make an impact,” said Gonwa-Ramos.

We are grateful for these two women and their contributions to the City of Milwaukee!
