I serve as the South Sound Program Manager for the Alzheimer’s Association, where I lead community outreach, education, and support programs for individuals and families impacted by Alzheimer’s and other dementias. With more than two decades of leadership experience in nonprofit service, operations, and community engagement, I bring both professional expertise and personal passion to my work. As a military spouse and dedicated advocate, I am deeply committed to supporting service members, veterans, and their families. I also serve as the Military Events Coordinator for the Greater Kitsap Chamber, where I lead large-scale community events that honor military service and strengthen civic connection. I am actively involved with the Navy League and am passionate about building partnerships, expanding access to resources, and ensuring individuals and caregivers feel supported, informed, and empowered.
