Dianna Lambert grew up a military “brat,” living in three countries before graduating high school. Claiming Florida as her home state, she attended Florida State University, earning her degree in Criminology. Following college, she achieved her Florida law enforcement certification, and served five years as a police officer. After moving with her husband’s job to Cumming, Georgia in 2000, she enjoyed being a stay- home mom for a few years until her children reached school age.

Dianna then re-entered the workforce as a Victim Advocate with the Forsyth County Sheriff’s office, where she provided legal advocacy services to many families in crisis. Continuing her passion for family service, Dianna served as Chairperson of the Forsyth County Domestic Violence Fatality Review Board from 2009 – 2011. As Chair of this organization, she engaged with many community agencies to study and raise awareness of domestic violence issues in the county and state. After working with the review Board, she gained certification as a Child Forensic Interviewer and served with a local non-profit to monitor court-ordered child visitations. From 2016-2022, Dianna worked as an Intake Coordinator at a family law firm. With her love for helping families, Dianna is pleased to serve as a parapro and looks forward to working alongside great teachers at YHALE to give children an enjoyable English language experience.

Outside of work, Dianna enjoys time with her husband, two sons, singing in her church choir, and cheering on the Braves baseball team.
