Co-Founder & Treasurer

Financial stewardship and organizational development

Bio:
I’m 45 years old and proud of the path I’ve walked. I graduated in 1997 while five months pregnant, bought my first home at 21, and have built a life grounded in hard work, loyalty, and heart. For years, I’ve served as a Scheduling Manager, coordinating care for 25 physicians and supporting patients and staff with integrity and precision.

I’ve been married for 10 years, and alongside my husband, I co-founded a youth development nonprofit in 2016 that continues to impact lives today. From 2018 to 2023, we also owned and operated a restaurant—combining our passions for service, community, and entrepreneurship.

I’m a team player who thinks ahead, enhances ideas, and always goes above and beyond for those in need. Loyal and honest at my core, I lead with purpose, compassion, and a strong commitment to making a difference wherever I can.
