Our EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Meet Claudia Greenwood

Claudia joined the leadership team at the Knox County Chamber in 2010 as the Executive Director and has spearheaded the effort to increase support for the Chamber across the community.

Claudia retired from the Knox County School System after teaching for 27 years and then moved to a grant-writing, public relations, and clerk position at the Knox County Attorney’s Office for approximately 13 years. It was under the direction of the late County Attorney Charley Dixon that Claudia became so involved with the Chamber and the Knox County Community. She currently serves as Knox County UNITE Coalition Chair, Historian for the Dr. Thomas Walker Chapter DAR, Barbourville Tourism Commission Chair, and 2nd Vice President for the Barbourville Woman’s Club. She also serves on the Knox Association of Baptist WMU Leadership Team, KY WMU Executive Board, Ladies Sunday School Class teacher at Locust Grove Baptist Church, Leadership Tri-County Board, Upper Cumberland Community Foundation Board, CASA of Clay Knox and Laurel Counties Board, Barbourville ARH Local Advisory Council, Barbourville City Schools FRYSC Council, Girdler School FRYSC Council, and more.

Her goal is to make Barbourville a better place to work and live now and in the future. With the patience and understanding of her husband David, she pursues this challenge every day.
