New York State Motor Truck Association Executive Director Kendra Adams has been named to the transition team of New York Governor-elect Andrew Cuomo.
The transition committees will recruit, review and recommend talented candidates for key positions in the Transportation and Infrastructure committee.
"I want to thank the men and women who have committed their time to help build our Administration, a true public service that will further our work to improve New York," Cuomo said. "The challenges ahead require talented individuals who believe in state government and are passionate about doing the work of the people of New York. I am confident that with the transition committees we have assembled, we will bring the best and brightest minds into State service."
Cuomo also unveiled a new website where individuals who would like to apply for positions in the Administration may submit their resumes. The transitions teams will review those relevant to their respective fields and recommend exceptional applicants to the Governor- and Lieutenant Governor-Elect.
Cuomo takes office in January, replacing fellow-Democrat David Patterson, who did not run for re-election.

Dave Barger, C.E.O., President and Director, JetBlue; Eugene Berardi, Jr., President and CEO, Adirondack Trailways; Lillian Borrone, Chairman, ENO Transportation Foundation; Martin Dilan, New York State Senate; David Gantt, NYS Assembly; Robert Gioia, former Chairman, Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority; Peter S.
