Five Questions 

What is your favorite part about working at Realm of Caring?

My passion and profession now align. There is nothing better than ending the day with no potential left in it, and truly knowing we have helped to improve people’s lives. 

What was your most interesting job before joining Realm of Caring?

The most interesting job I had before RoC was a nonprofit child development center that provided education for children and their families. Helping to shape young people’s minds is awesome, but if you want to sit at the feet of Yoda, talk to a kid! They say the most interesting things.

Where can we find you after work?

Snuggled up with the family! Reading, playing a game, or sitting in front of the fireplace.
