Rinetra Thompson is an assistance payments lead worker for MDHHS.  I serve as a mentor for the probationary and seasoned staff in the office.  I conduct trainings that educate staff on the various programs and resources that we offer to those in dire need or seeking assistance to become self-sufficient.  I am passionate about helping others and helping them understand that a set back is preparation for a greater come back.  Prior to my current role, I was a deputy court clerk for the 50th District Court for 12 years.  Lastly, I have a cosmetics line, Simpliciti Cosmetics.  My baby is currently under construction and being revamped so stay tuned…

I have a Bachelor of Science in HR from Oakland University, and a Masters in HR Management from Walden University.  

My daughter is 8 years-old and is my pride and joy. I enjoy spending quality time with my daughter, family and friends.  I love to laugh, shop, dance, eat, travel and overall enjoy life!
