Tell Quest something about yourself (family, travel, school, etc)
I'm a mom of 3 adult kids & two in-law " kids". I've been married 34 yrs. I'm pretty
obsessed with everything nature , and am always planning the next trip to the mountains.
Summer days/evenings you will find me in my garden tending flowers and fruit.
How long have you worked at Quest and what location/ program do you work at?
I've been with Quest for 16 yrs and always have loved front line work at Impact where I
feel most invested in the individuals.
What is your best moment at Quest? Or what has been your biggest
accomplishment at Quest?
I love getting to know new staff, each coming with their own unique story. I have built a
community of deep friendships at Quest.
Some of the best moments at Quest have been just being part of an individual's growth
and potential.
I also have a side passion that is food prep and service. If Quest is having a special
Holiday meal I will try to get in there to help (even if it's doing dishes).
What advice would you give to the new hires?
My advice to a new hire would be to just find joy in the job. Don't just put in the time but
realize your potential to bring joy into the individuals day.
