A value for faith, family &communitywas instilled in me as a child by my father, a local fire captain & minister. I watched him risk his life, and constantly give of his time and resources with joy as he improved the lives of those around him. I went on to marry a man with a similar heart for service. My husband a minister and I have served a variety of local communities and also served communities around the world. In addition to my work in education & Christian ministry, I decided to pursue a career in Long-Term Care out of a desire to continue that legacy of service, by creating safe environments for the most vulnerable members of our families & communities.
