Sallyann Rigdon has led a distinguished Risk Management career spanning nearly three decades. Her wealth of knowledge and experience in the field is remarkable. She began her professional career as an attorney; she earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Michigan Law School and is licensed to practice law in both state and federal courts in Texas. She currently serves as the Risk Manager for VIA Metropolitan Transit in San Antonio, a role she has held for 17 years — one that brings her great fulfillment, as it combines both the Risk and Legal landscapes. Sallyann notes that people often assume she left her law career for risk management, but she happily responds that “nothing could be farther from the truth.” One of her favorite quotes is, “Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk,” by the Dalai Lama. Sallyann has served on various Texas PRIMA committees and also served as Wyoming PRIMA President. She is an avid reader and member of two book clubs, a movie buff, and enjoys walking, swimming, and dancing!
