I am the executive director at our Four Rivers Family YMCA where I get to help people and serve our wonderful community every day.  I volunteer with several service groups including WINGS, Kiwanis Club of Washington, Rotary Club of Washington, and Our Lady of Lourdes. 
I appreciate the opportunity to serve with the Washington Chamber of Commerce if you find me to be a good fit.
