Director of Congregational Life &I am a long time resident of Skaneateles having attended high school here and returning to the community over 18 years ago. With my husband Terry and children, Emily (26 years old) and Paige (11 years old) by my side, I am enjoying this ever evolving position at St. James’. I have a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education from Geneseo and have spent much of my career in marketing and business development. Throughout my career, I have volunteered my time to Sunday School and the Middle School Youth programs. In my role, the challenge will be to continue the strong level of commitment to our youth, communicate all the exciting things sprouting all over St. James’ along with supporting the Parish needs with coordinating volunteers. Volunteering is such an empowering means of leadership. I feel passionate about its role in all of our lives and how we as individuals are given gifts from Holy Spirit and only through using those gifts can we truly be happy. St. James’ is a special place not only because of our spectacular building but because of all the amazing people I am blessed to call my fellow parishioners. I am so excited and thankful for the future and look with anticipation at what the Holy Spirit has in store for me!
