Sinclair eliminates community relations specialist

With her position eliminated, Ryta Sondergard will part ways with Sinclair Refinery at the end of the month.

The refinery notified employees late last week about the change. For nearly six years, Sondergard has served as the public face of the refinery as the company’s community outreach officer.

Many underfunded organizations have benefited because of her efforts. Bigfoot 99’s Cali O’Hare sat down with Sondergard to find out what happens next.
