Littlejohn, who has worked for the city since 2012, replaces interim IT director Art Rea, a software engineering manager for the department who served in the role for the past five months. Rea stepped into the position shortly after the retirement of longtime IT director David Puntenney, who served as director for nearly 20 years.
Littlejohn first began working with the city as a library supervisor, but quickly took on a variety of roles in other city departments, including positions with the Parks and Recreation, Human Resources and Library departments.
As a division manager for Library Services, Littlejohn was in charge of the library master plan process and managed digital and Web-based services for the city’s College Hill and Irving Street libraries.
Littlejohn holds a bachelor's degree from St. Mary's College of California, a master's degree from the University of Chicago, and a Master of Science in library and information science from the University of Denver, according to her LinkedIn.
