I have worked in “the system” since I graduated college, almost 20 years ago. I have a passion to help children who have been removed from their homes, children who need a family to care for them. I started my career as an entry level direct care counselor working across various locales including youth homeless shelters in Chicago, at-risk schools in Phoenix, and a youth crisis center in Cincinnati.
I am currently the Senior Advancement Director for Sunrise Children’s Services, the Kentucky Baptist Homes for Children, where I get the privilege of sharing the stories of the children I have worked with. I want people to know their names. These children deserve to be known.
I hold a Masters of Arts degree in Religious Studies from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA, and a Masters of Divinity degree from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville. I am also credentialed as a Christian Nonprofit Leader by the Christian Leadership Alliance.
I frequently speak at churches and workshops, offering practical insights on how the church can extend its care to foster children. A significant part of my effort is aimed at redefining notions like ‘unadoptable’ and ‘aging out’.
I also develop organizational systems in the nonprofit sector that will increase productivity and better serve not only organizations, but the very populations they serve. As an avid web developer, and experienced digital marketer, I am a huge advocate in implementing technology to help solve complex organizational and social problems.
Most importantly my work is deeply rooted in my faith. I believe in the transformative power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and its clearly defined connection to the concept of adoption. This spiritual calling drives my dedication to reshaping lives and advocating for those in need.
I received an email from a church leader expressing how excited his church was to become a partner in ministry. The church was ready to add our organization into.
An eternal mindset is a mind focused on the unseen realm, on things above rather than on the temporary things of life. The act of giving with an eternal.
There is no greater feeling than the feeling of home. Oh, how I long for home after a long day’s work. To walk through those doors and be greeted.
