Lana Haffner has spent the past 26 years in public education, serving in a variety of roles across several states. No matter where she has worked, her greatest joy has always been helping students discover their strengths and connect to their future—whether that means college, a career, or military service. She is passionate about building relationships with students and families and guiding them toward the resources and opportunities that help them succeed.
Lana is also a proud military wife and mom, which has shaped her deep appreciation for service, resilience, and community. Outside of work, she enjoys playing tennis, Mahjong, and spending time with her family and dogs.
