Estrada returns to City Hall
Wednesday, January 23, 2019 by Jo Clifton
Deena Estrada, who worked for Council Member Bill Spelman under the city’s at-large system of electing Council, has taken the job of chief of staff for District 8 Council Member Paige Ellis. Estrada served as boards and commissions coordinator in the city clerk’s office after her stint with Spelman. Since then she has worked in the private sector, but told the Austin Monitor she’s very happy to be back at City Hall. Estrada would not reveal the names of others who may be coming to work for Ellis, but said that information would become public next week.
