As of 2019, she holds the title of Executive Director, overseeing all operations and the strategic direction of the organization.

Elizabeth’s passion for detail and her willingness to help fosters a strong, connected community. Outside of work Elizabeth loves to bake. She enjoys bringing people together over her desserts, which are coveted by her extended family.
