Lifelong Lamar County resident Brian Brumley was appointed chair of the Texas State Board of Social Work Examiners by Gov. Greg Abbott in December 2020, and despite wearing many hats as a father, educator, rancher, property owner and mentor, heâs taken the role head-on.
âIt is a busy life, but I donât like being still,â Brumley said.
Brumley currently works as the director of field education for the School of Social Work at Texas A&M University-Commerce, setting up internships and practicums for around 150 students each semester within a 500-mile radius. While heâs now integral in helping social work students start out their careers, he said he didnât always know that was the field he wanted to pursue. The opportunity just presented itself when he was offered a job with Child Protective Services.
