Hack served as the first CEO of the Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund, president of the Kentucky Tobacco Settlement Trust Corporation and led the effort to diversify Kentucky's farm economy.

"I'm deeply grateful for this opportunity to join Governor Bevin's leadership team and the fine women and men who provide the essential public services that touch all Kentuckians through the Department of Vehicle Regulation, along with our partners in the circuit and county clerks' offices throughout Kentucky," said Commissioner Hack. "I look forward to working with all involved to make our Department a national model for effectiveness and efficiency."
