Who We Are

I am proud to be involved with Habitat for Humanity because we offer a hand up and not a handout. We give people the opportunity to change their lives and potentially impact future generations within that household. For me, I was fortunate to become a homeowner at an early age. The sense of pride and accomplishment I felt is something that I feel Habitat strives to do for our families.

It’s an honor to serve on this board, as Habitat for Humanity aligns so closely with my beliefs and interests. Being a construction manager and also having worked on several houses for our partner families, I’m so thankful for the presence that our affiliate has here in our community and the difference that it continues to make. I hope you’ll join us in making that difference by volunteering, donating, and lifting us up in prayer.

Both my faith and my sense of civic duty lead me to the understanding that we are called to help those
less fortunate than us. I know of no way to answer that call which is better than service through
Habitat. It has been my pleasure to help a bit with Habitat work over the years and it is a natural step to
accept the invitation to serve on the Board. Plus, I enjoy it!

I am passionate about helping people improve their lives. I feel so fortunate to share this purpose with my employer and now also have the opportunity to serve on Habitat’s Board. Habitat’s mission is to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. Safe and affordable shelter is something that many of us take for granted, but it is really a foundation for success economically, socially, physically, and mentally.

There are many rewarding things about working with Habitat. We have dedicated staff who look for innovative ways to continue our mission. Our core volunteers dedicate countless hours of often skilled labor. Our programs truly prepare our partner families for the responsibilities of being a homeowner.

It is with great honor to serve on the Habitat for Humanity Board to help build the lives of so many deserving families reach their ultimate goal; home ownership. My desire to help those who seek affordable housing by breaking barriers and generational cycles, promote outreach and education, community enrichment, provide job opportunities, and economic growth are just a few of my many reasons why I serve. It is truly rewarding to work hand and hand with community partners and volunteers to provide safe and secure housing that so many families are proud to call home.
