I first fell in love with Ronald McDonald House in 2014 when I was hired for the Weekend Manager position. In that role, I spent a lot of time talking to our families and learning their stories and the challenges they face. This insight helped me transition to my new role Director of Family Engagement. In this role, I work closely with our families and create new programs to assist them while they are staying at the House, as well as when they are ready to transition home. It is my privilege and honor to work for such an amazing organization that is dedicated to putting our families first.

I began my journey with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern Arizona as a volunteer two years ago and now serve as a Family Support Intern through my Health and Human Values minor in the W.A. Franke Honors College. I am a junior at the University of Arizona, and the House has become a place that truly feels like home to me. I am deeply passionate about supporting families during difficult times and building meaningful, lasting relationships within this community.

I have had the privilege of assisting some of the bravest children and young adults, and their supportive families during a difficult and stressful time in their lives. I have seen how Ronald McDonald House Charities has allowed these families to focus on healing while having their housing, food, and transportation needs cared for without cost to them. I am also impressed how the community in Southern Arizona has come together to provide the financial support to permit all of this to happen. It is truly an amazing experience.

I really value the interactions with the families I have during my weekends at the Ronald McDonald House. In addition to providing administrative support to some of their doctors at my day job, my time with them at the House feels like a full circle moment.
One of the things I appreciate most about the Ronald McDonald House is that all families are recognized and treated with the same loving care.

I joined the RMHC in 2013 and quickly understood just how important the House is for our families. Every day I am amazed by the generosity and spirit of our volunteers, donors, sponsors, and the entire Southern Arizona community all in support of our guests. At the heart of RMHC is family, and that’s what has been built here by those same people over the last 40+ years.

Hola! In 2016, I was blessed to join the RMHC as the Accounting Manager. Ever since, my goal has been to keep this home in compliance and protect its finances so this house can continue to serve families for many years to come. I take care of all the accounting, HR and notary needs but the best part of my job is when we get Spanish only speaking families. Being bilingual allows me to step outside of my accounting world and assist them to help make their stay much easier and more welcoming. I’m honored to able to work with such an amazing staff, volunteers and the RMHC organization.

My journey with Ronald McDonald House Charities began when I first volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House in Columbus Ohio in 2012. Not only was it a home away from home for families needing a place to stay while their child receives medical care, it also became my home away from home as well. I became a staff member and held many different positions. It is a magical place where families come first. Now that my family and I have moved to Tucson, I look forward to continuing my involvement with this wonderful mission and making it possible for this Ronald McDonald House to serve many families.

I joined the RMHC-SA team in 2020. The best part of my job is listening to families share their stories and, in turn, sharing these stories with you through social media, our e-newsletters and the annual Gratitude Report. I am so grateful to work here and to see the magic that happens every day.
