Salt Tampa Outreach

I believe in the power of a smile, a hug, and listening to someone's story, because during difficult moments in my life, others gave me the strength to keep going. I've been a co-leader with SALT for the past four years, and it has been a blessing to not only encourage someone who is facing uncertainty, but to help provide an opportunity for our volunteers to collaborate in sharing hope with someone. SALT stands for Service And Love Together, and I have had the chance to serve on multiple mission trips to Costa Rica, Botswana, and beyond! I love to travel, but especially in service of others. Disaster relief, local and international, is one of my passions as well! Aside from work and SALT, I'm an avid board game collector and Mario Kart enthusiast, and I enjoy hanging out with friends the most!

I’m passionate about being part of this community and building each other up. I was drawn to SALT because it gave me the chance to meet people face to face and know them beyond their life situation. I’ve loved co-leading this ministry since it launched in October 2021. My favorite part is what SALT stands for: Service and Love Together — what we do, we do in love, and we do it together. By day, I’m a case manager working with kids and families across Tampa Bay, with a heart for our most vulnerable neighbors. Outside of work, I’m a cat mom to Diego (17, tuxedo, and very much in charge) and love a good movie or discovering a new Asian food spot.
