“I’m truly honored and excited to be selected as the first PEC Community Transformer, Duffy said. “Being recognized for serving others is both humbling and deeply meaningful. Service and leadership are not just things I do—they’re part of who I am. Giving back to my community, supporting our schools, and standing up for the most vulnerable brings me purpose and joy every day. This recognition truly reaffirms my passion for helping others.”
Duffy works as a nurse leader and has won awards for her work and volunteer service. She has served as a City Council member since 2017 and is an active member of many nonprofit organizations in Cedar Park and Williamson County. She is a U.S. Navy veteran, where she served in many capacities.
