Staying Home: City hires new EKU grads for key positions

Eastern Kentucky University graduates Grayson Eaves and Emma Carmack are putting down roots in Richmond and investing in the community they now call home. Eaves, a Richmond native, and Carmack, originally from Lincoln County, have both chosen to build their futures in the city following their time at EKU.

Their decision to remain in Richmond was strengthened by opportunities to serve the community through careers with the City of Richmond. More importantly, though, both say the city has become a place where they feel connected and invested.

Carmack earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Arts and History and will serve as Curator of Battlefield Park, the historic Civil War site commemorating the Battle of Richmond. Eaves graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and has stepped into the role of Economic Development Coordinator.
