The people behind the foundation.

As Co-Founder and Director of Youth Empowerment Programs of The Taylor Legacy Foundation, I lead the design and delivery of youth programs focused on education, life skills, and workforce readiness. With more than three decades of experience in education, teaching, and career pathways development, I bring deep expertise in designing programs that help young people transition successfully into adulthood.

At the foundation, I oversee all programmatic efforts, including curriculum development, life skills training, and workforce readiness initiatives. I also build and maintain partnerships with schools, employers, and community organizations to create meaningful opportunities for youth development and long-term success.

My work centers on creating structured, engaging, and developmentally appropriate programs that equip young people with the skills and confidence needed for independent adulthood. I oversee program strategy, curriculum design, and community partnerships that expand opportunities for the youth we serve.

I am Co-Founder and Director of Strategic Initiatives of The Taylor Legacy Foundation, where I focus on building the systems, structures, and operating models that enable effective, scalable youth services. With a professional background in healthcare product management and systems design, I bring a structured, outcomes-driven approach to nonprofit leadership.

My work centers on designing the operational backbone that allows programs and clinical services to function cohesively, consistently, and at scale. At the foundation, I lead the development of our operating model, ensuring that intake, placement, care coordination, and outcomes measurement systems are aligned to support youth stability and long-term success.

I work closely with our program and clinical leaders to ensure that every aspect of service delivery is connected through a unified system of care. I believe that meaningful impact requires more than strong programs—it requires strong systems that allow those programs to scale, adapt, and sustain long-term outcomes.

I am the Co-Founder and Director of Clinical & Support Services for The Taylor Legacy Foundation, where I lead the development of trauma-informed support systems and care coordination services designed to help youth achieve stability, growth, and long-term success.

With a background in social work, care management, and youth services, I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals and families through complex life transitions. My experience includes care coordination, behavioral health support, family engagement, crisis intervention, and the development of person-centered service plans. At The Taylor Legacy Foundation, I oversee clinical support and care coordination, ensuring that youth receive consistent, structured, and compassionate support across all aspects of their care.

I work collaboratively with families, caregivers, community partners, educators, and service providers to promote positive outcomes and create pathways toward healing and independence. My passion is building programs that empower young people, strengthen families, and provide the support, guidance, and opportunities every youth deserves to thrive.
