Meet The Founder
Change Supportive Services, Inc. was born out of a lifelong calling to serve, teach, and guide others toward hope and transformation. As a veteran educator with nearly thirty years of teaching experience, I have dedicated my career to helping people recognize their value, discover their strengths, and pursue new opportunities through education, faith, and support.
My journey has led me through many roles of service—working as a liaison for homeless students under the McKinney-Vento Act, volunteering and mentoring young men in juvenile detention, serving as a Wellness Ambassador for school staff, and walking alongside countless individuals in need of encouragement and direction. These experiences deepened my compassion and reinforced my belief that with guidance, training, and faith, people can rise above life’s challenges to create purposeful futures.
In addition to my professional and volunteer work, I serve as a licensed minister, Christian Education Superintendent, and life coach/mentor, while also pursuing a Ph.D. in Theology. My greatest desire is to share the truth that there is hope, strength, and purpose in God’s Word.
Through Change Supportive Services, Inc., I seek to extend a lifeline—a Christ-centered place of transitional housing and compassionate support—for individuals who are ready for a fresh start. Guided by the command to “love thy neighbor as thyself,” we provide faith-driven mentorship, life skills training, education, job preparation, and personal development, empowering people to embrace God’s love and step into the future He has prepared for them.
