New Active Adult & Senior Program Coordinator

As the former Senior Services Associates Inc. Activity Director for their McHenry office, I had the pleasure of bringing seniors their leisure through programs & activities for many townships.  Serving senior leisure needs for the past 5 year’s I have found my Master’s in Recreation Administration from George Williams College of Aurora University & my Bachelor's in Business Management  from Eastern Illinois University to be  very helpful.  Now as the new Senior Coordinator at the Irwin Center, I am delighted to bring my newfound experiences and ideas to the Homewood-Flossmoor Active Adult & Senior groups.  The passion I have for choosing this profession is beyond a few words. I find the older generations to have a true compassion for life, a real respect for others, and a genuine quality that cannot be found anywhere else. 

Thanks for welcoming me back!
