CLEMMONS — North Carolina Secretary of State Elaine F. Marshall will open the virtual conference entitled Adapting, Protecting, and Preparing co-hosted by The Society of Financial Service Professionals-Winston Salem Chapter and the Clemmons Community Foundation on Dec. 17. Secretary Marshall will speak on emergency video notarizations, a recent option for remote notarization prompted this year by the continuing pandemic, eNotarizations, as well as other department updates. Joining Secretary Marshall for questions and answers is Ozie Stallworth, director of eNotarizations and notary enforcement.
Marshall, recently re-elected, became the first woman elected to a North Carolina executive branch office in 1996, having previously served as a member of the N.C. Senate. Over the course of her career, Marshall has been very active in many civic groups in the areas of child welfare, women’s issues, and agriculture and small-town economic development.
Since becoming secretary of state, Marshall has received numerous state and national awards for leadership in technology, government innovation, and women’s leadership. This year alone, she was awarded the 2020 John A. (Pete) Eberhart Ray of Light Award from Boundless Impact and became the first woman awarded the N.C. Bar Association’s 2020 Chief Justice I. Beverly Lake Jr. Public Service Award honoring exceptional attorneys practicing in North Carolina who have contributed to the community with exemplary public service.
