Tell us a little bit about yourself and your family.

 

I am 54 and single. I’m an office manager for R S Parker Construction. I have been there 19 years and love my job and the people I work with. I like being outdoors, going to the beach, hanging out in the pool and hot tub.

I have two wonderful sons. Tyler is 29 and Bryce is 21. I have two grandsons, Jaxon, 5, and Maddux, 3. I have three fur babies. Roxy is the queen and is a cocker spaniel. Remi and Bailey are the labs of the family.

Why is it important to you to be part of a team at GracePoint?

How has being part of a team impacted you?

 

Being part of a team makes me feel like I’m part of a family, not just part of a church I go to on Sundays.

I started serving more after my husband passed away and it was the best thing for me. It helped me through that rough time. I have new friends that make me feel like part of a family.

I will travel at the spur of the moment. I like long, sunny afternoons. I like trying new things.

If you could encourage someone to join a team at GracePoint, what would you say?

 

Just do it! Don’t overthink it. You won’t regret it.

My biggest surprise about being on team was how well I fit in!

Tell us about a vision story that you have seen unfold at GracePoint.

 

I’m not sure if it’s a vision story, but it’s something I find interesting. Since we re-opened from COVID, the coffee team had to serve the drinks instead of doing self-service. It was nice getting to interact with the people getting drinks. I mainly served the coffee and I started to learn how different people took their coffee. It was such a blessing to see more and more people come back as the weeks progressed.
