Please join us in giving a warm Port of Cleveland welcome to Abby Henry! 🎉

Originally from Toledo, Abby is a lover of all things Great Lakes and a firm believer in the promise of Ohio’s waterfront cities. A proud Denison University graduate, she joins our team after four years serving as a Strategic Projects Manager in the City of Cleveland Mayor’s Office.

When she's not helping shape the future of our region, you can find Abby enjoying life along the shoreline — biking through Detroit Shoreway, playing volleyball at Whiskey Island, or creating her next pottery masterpiece. 🚲🏐🏺

We're excited to have her passion, experience, and love for the Great Lakes on board. Welcome to the team, Abby! ⚓
