What’s the best part about working at the Chamber?
“I love that I am able to combine my passion for event planning with my commitment for servant leadership.”
What was your first job?
“I was a sales associate with Macy’s. I really didn’t consider it a job as I was more like a volunteer. My paycheck went to my Macy’s bill, because they had a fabulous discount!”
I love Williamsburg because…
“I have been visiting Williamsburg since I was 4 years old. It always felt like a second home to me, so I didn’t have to think twice when I had the opportunity to move. I love the history and the warmth of the community.”
