I have had the pleasure of working here since 2006 and have been the Executive Director since 2008. My favorite part about working at House of Hope is seeing the moment something clicks for a girl of the family. That moment when she really knows that she is loved and WORTH IT! I love seeing a young woman get that spark in her eye and begin to step into who she really is. I love watching these families be able to forgive and gain new understanding of one another and to begin again. A little about me personally is that I love yoga and spending time with my husband and our miniature dachshund Oliver!

I have worked for HOH since 2009 and I work here for two reasons: as a way to give back for all they did for us when we needed HOPE and I felt called to work in ministry. I feel I bring a unique perspective to the ministry.  My journey with HOH began as a client in the out-patient then residential program prior to working for HOH.  This allows me to speak to prospective clients with a personal level of my experience. I was born in Woodstock, Canada, lived in Guam for a period of time, and I love Crossfit and am a Masters Champion.

I have been working at House of Hope since 2005 and I believe that the Lord led me to HOH and began to show me His heart for families. In Malachi 4 we read He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents. If there is one thing I know for sure - it is that His heart is for families. I am humbled to be a catalyst in the process of equipping and in the healing of families. I love bird watching and swimming laps!

I started at House of Hope in 2017 and what I love about this program is being able to see God not only work in the hearts of our girls, but also their families! I love being able to work with strong women who are all working towards the same goal of reconciliation. I love to practice yoga, watch practically anything on Bravo, and spend time with my husband and my German Shorthaired Pointer, Wilbur!

I have been working at House of Hope since 2012 and I love to work alongside families seeking healing and restoration through Christ. I have two dogs and in my spare time I enjoy roasting my own coffee beans!

I started at House of Hope in 2007 and spent almost 5 years as house staff before becoming the school supervisor. When I started as a house staff, I wanted to use my past experiences and heartaches to relate to the girls and help them through their difficult journey. While that is still the case, I continue to work here because I love the House of Hope family, and working here challenges me to always work on being a better version of myself. I love CrossFit, drinking coffee, watching football, and playing outside with my family which includes my awesome husband, two hilarious kids, and one crazy dog.

I have worked at House of Hope for almost a year. I work at House of Hope because I believe every girl deserves to be heard and every family needs the opportunity to strengthen their communication, awareness, and empathy. I graduated from Meredith college and I have a precious dog child named Boomer.

I love working at House of Hope because I am able to mentor and shepherd girls who have experienced similar traumas as myself and to be a positive influence and encourager in their lives. I love yoga, coffee, running, and spending time on missions in Alaska. I first started at House of Hope as a volunteer and it has been such a blessing and adventure to transition to full time staff!
