People helping people.

That's what Haley House is all about. Fostering relationships. Connecting. Sharing. Backgrounds and hierarchy melt away. We are all one. Moving toward a common goal. Mutual respect for all.

What is your role at Haley House?
I oversee our Affordable Housing Program.

What brought you to Haley House?
Haley House! I believed in its mission, admired the work of the people associated with Haley House and the respectful, down to earth, person-to-person, way in which they related to our guests. When the opportunity came to be part of that, to use my professional skills in the service of people I believed in, it was an easy decision to change jobs. Seventeen years later I still consider it a great move.

Favorite dish at HHBC, Soup Kitchen or Noonday Farm?
Jerk Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

Favorite downtime activity?
Reading.

Favorite or most memorable HH moment?
Whenever I experience work related stress and need to regain my perspective, I love to go sit on the stoops of our buildings and talk to our residents. Conversations with them clear my head and focus my heart on why I came to work at Haley House in the first place and why I have stayed all these years.
