Community Engagement Specialist
I'm Friday Otuya /Oh-Too-Yah/. I love connecting people with resources, working on initiatives that change lives, and building bridges that lead to prosperity within our service footprint. You can contact me about special projects, partnership ideas, and all things loans and grants related. If you are curious how Nex-Tech can partner with you, I'd love to chat.
My desire is to see rural communities in northwest and central Kansas thrive by utilizing Nex-Tech's resources, or by tapping federal, state, and local resources.
I live with my wife and son in Hays, KS.
