I’m a volunteer organizer and community builder at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Gwinnett (UUCG). I love bringing people together and creating welcoming spaces where people can connect, celebrate, learn, and grow.

I help organize and support a variety of congregational and community events, from seasonal celebrations and Pagan gatherings to family activities, outreach events, and opportunities to build connections beyond the congregation. I enjoy taking an idea and turning it into an experience that people can participate in and remember.

I’m especially passionate about creating events where people can show up as their authentic selves and find a sense of belonging. Whether I’m coordinating logistics, recruiting volunteers, developing programs, creating communications, or simply pitching in wherever I’m needed, I believe that community happens when we’re willing to work together and make things happen.

My approach to organizing is rooted in collaboration, generosity, creativity, and fun. I believe volunteering should not only benefit the community—it should also give people opportunities to build relationships, discover their talents, learn something new, and experience the joy of creating something together.

For me, organizing isn’t about doing everything myself. It’s about helping people find a place where they can contribute, feel valued, and know that they matter. I’m proud to help build a UUCG community where we nourish spirits, transform connections, and bloom together.
