Executive Director
About Me:
I am an Army veteran. I spent 30 years in service to our nation and retired with the rank of Command Sergeant Major. I have an extensive background in leadership and developing teams. I have an undergraduate degree from Excelsior College Albany, NY, and a graduate degree in Organizational Leadership from the University of Texas at El Paso, and became a Maxwell Leadership Certified Team Member. I am a giver by nature and always find time to do one more thing. It is an honor for me to help and add value to others. It is my life's calling.
