My family taught me the value of public service and community-building when I was a little girl.
Every Halloween, my mother would walk with me, my brother and sisters in our neighborhood collecting coins for UNICEF. Every coin we collected in the orange collection carton helped a child in need.
I started my business in 1987 with the mission to help solve my client’s problems and contribute back to the community. I donate a portion of every project to a non-profit and I have a
second business dedicated to raising money and awareness for animal rescue organizations.
I named my second business Village of Hearts because this is who we are as a community. We are guided by our heart when we share a smile with a stranger or extend our hand to help a neighbor.
This year my heart guided me as I volunteered with: United Food Bank, Special Olympics, Ability 360, Ahwatukee/Tempe Democrats collected food and supplies for the Kyrene Resource Center and passed out water for the people in Phoenix.
I held a water drive for The Society of St. Vincent De Paul and filled my car with blankets to donate to the Maricopa County Animal Care and Control shelter.
Love, generosity, and goodness are the ideals I aspire to during the year. Thank you for your friendship and generous heart as we walk this path together.
