Hastick-Motes earned a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing from Notre Dame College and a Master (with distinction)
in Public Administration from Long Island University. She has been a member of the International Association
of Business Communicators (IABC) and The Healthcare Association of New York State Community Health Task
Force (HANYS).
Hastick-Motes’ career life is a full circle. As a child, she walked the halls with her Dad attending meetings
with business and public officials, and today she has had the privilege to work in those same places. She
has continued to carry the legacy of her father, the late Dr. Roy A. Hastick, Sr. Like him, she is a mentor,
government strategist, and community leader. She has been married to her husband Davond for 14 years, and
together they have three beautiful children—Denise, Nevaeh and Davond Jr.
