Madison, Wis. – Department of Administration Secretary Kathy Blumenfeld announced the appointment of Danielle Williams as Assistant Deputy Secretary. Williams previously served in this role at the Department of Workforce Development (DWD) since 2019.

During her tenure at DWD, Ms. Williams guided a major IT modernization effort, developed key stakeholder relationships to support Wisconsin employers and employees, and played a key role in developing the Workforce Innovation Grant program, which DOA partners with DWD in administering. Danielle Williams joined DOA on January 9.

He will begin his new post on January 17. 

“As we kick of the new year, and a new term for Governor Evers, I am excited to have proven leaders join the team to make positive impact for DOA, and the people we serve,” said Secretary Kathy Blumenfeld. “As we continue to improve government services, prudently manage state finances, and modernize our state workplace and workforce, Danielle and Sanjay will be trusted partners in building the future of DOA and the State as a whole.”
