I’m a fundraiser, specifically
focused on individual, corporate, & congregational giving.
Making sure our supporters
know how much we appreciate
them. I’m always looking for
creative ways to express our
gratitude.
I’m constantly thinking & talking
about Our House– residents,
volunteer opportunities, & most
of all making sure people know
that this place really works. We
witness lives changing every day.
My favorite memory is the very
first time I came to campus for
my interview. I ran into an old
friend. She gave me a tour of the
campus, so I assumed she
worked here. About an hour later
I learned that she was a resident,
& my perception of homelessness
changed immediately. I didn’t
know that “normal” people could
be homeless too. I was embarrassed at my ignorance, but I was
also inspired.
An astronaut.
I want to be a mom.
I make theatre & sing along
with Aaron while he plays piano.
