BIO
After having worked in the corporate sector for over 27 years in senior management positions, and setting up a for-profit insurance brokerage business from scratch, I am now the Founder and CEO of the Volunteer Well Organization, dedicating and focusing on my life’s passion. My journey to creating Volunteer Well is rooted in deeply personal and devastating life experiences. When at my most vulnerable and unsupported by my community I had to make a decision for the sake of my safety and survival, that decision remains the biggest regret of my life and I don’t want anyone to go through what I endured. Since then, I’ve made it my mission to create a platform to strengthen families, connect communities, and unite humanity.
