I’m the Volunteer Services Coordinator at Marklund, and I’m grateful to be part of a team dedicated to building meaningful connections and stronger communities.
I consider myself a student of life—curious, open to learning and passionate about making a positive difference. Having lived in several states and experienced different communities and cultures, my personal, professional, and community experiences have shaped how I see people and the world.
My experience includes civilian support roles with the U.S. Army, social services work helping seniors and people with disabilities connect with resources that support their independence and ability to remain in their homes and communities, and service on the Madison Community Policing Advisory Board. These experiences have taught me the importance of listening, building trust, appreciating different perspectives, and meeting people where they are.
I believe every person deserves dignity, autonomy, and the opportunity to feel heard, valued, and that they belong.
I bring that belief into my work through compassion, genuine listening, and a commitment to meaningful service.
Gratitude and wellness are important parts of my life. David Whyte’s Gratitude reminds me to slow down and appreciate each day. I believe caring for ourselves helps us show up more fully for others.
I’m grateful to be at Marklund and look forward to learning from others, building meaningful relationships, and helping create a community where people feel welcomed, supported, valued, and that they truly belong.
