Biography
| My Expertise | After working in the ESL, Title I and Special Education programs at my local school district, I joined The Arc Oregon in 2012 as an Administrative Assistant. Eight years later, I am happy to still be a part of this great organization as Program Director for the Oregon Special Needs Trust (OSNT). I am passionate about working in a field that advocates for all people and enjoy serving in my position to enhance the quality of life for people who experience disabilities and their families.

| My Why | I was introduced to The Arc at a very young age through the advocacy efforts of my aunt, Karen Staley, who was always striving to create the best quality of life for my cousin Jim. For me, there was never a thought that he shouldn’t have the same opportunities that are automatically afforded to people who do not experience a disability. Jimmy’s life was an inspiration to me and I feel grateful to be part of The Arc Oregon team and community and look forward to the changes we can help to shape in the future.

| My Life | I love good food, good music, and spending time with family and friends. At a young age I got the “bug” to travel and explore new places and hope to do much more in the future. I am a vocalist in the Aspen Meadow Band and Hearts in Harmony and enjoy bringing messages of hope, joy, and inspiration through music. |
