Application window has closed. Assists coordination of special events to generate funds, attendance, increase membership, volunteers, and/or clients for the organization. Assists with budget planning, booking event services and permits
The Senior Center is a tight-knit, supportive community and I love watching new seniors, looking for friends, fold into the mix, bonding over mutual interests like books and bridge. With the Learnery I love being able to foster peoples’ creativity and thirst for knowledge by hosting classes like guitar, Spanish, intro to watercolors, and ballroom dance.
My favorite Sierra2/SCNA event is the Holiday Craft Fair. I love working with talented local artists and small businesses. It’s also a great fundraiser for the Senior Center. Seeing hard work pay off in the form of a successful event is always nice, too!
My favorite room at Sierra 2 is Room 11. It still has the charm of an old-fashioned classroom with the chalkboard and built-in wood counter while lending itself perfectly for so many different events or activities – kids’ birthdays, art classes, business meetings, and even baby & bridal showers! I also love the Garden Room Courtyard – it’s a beautiful space to eat lunch on a sunny day
I love cooking and trying new vegetarian and vegan recipes. My latest adventures include no sugar added carrot cake, homemade almond milk, and creamy vegan cheese sauces.

I was attracted to working at Sierra 2 because it reminded me of the San Francisco YMCA, where I worked for eight years as the Youth & Family Director. I enjoy working with the community and with non-profits, and this seemed like a perfect fit. There’s a true sense of community here between the center and the surrounding neighborhoods.
I like that we’re given the opportunity to touch people’s lives in very personal ways. Just as many renters have, I myself have hosted a family reunion, baby and bridal showers, farewell parties and even my father’s Celebration of Life here. Through the years I’ve made many lasting friendships among SCNA members, our clientele, tenants and my co-workers. I’ve seen a lot of changes to the Center over the years that I’m proud to be a part of.
I always enjoy Home Tour because it was my Mom’s favorite one to attend together. The Wine Tasting event is always a fun day…great food, beverages and lots of happy people!
Obviously, I love our theater! I also love the Garden Room and its attached courtyard. I enjoy taking lunch breaks in the courtyard with the birds and squirrels as company. I agree wholeheartedly with clients who, when they visit for the first time, say that the entire facility has a “special energy and a good feeling about it!”
I started researching my family genealogy about 40 years ago. Several trips to Salt Lake City’s Family History Library, online research and many visits to archival libraries and I’ve traced my family as far back as the 800’s! It’s been fun learning the history of my family, the world and about my famous and infamous relatives. It’s a never ending hobby as new branches of the tree open up continually. I’ve also met and made friends with many new cousins who are also researching our family lines.
I also enjoy cooking dishes from around the world and creating my own recipes.I agree wholeheartedly with clients who, when they visit for the first time, say that the entire facility has a “special energy and a good feeling about it!”

Bringing people together and building community through arts and activities.
Curtis Fest all the way. I love working with artists and spending the day in the park.
I like the hallways. I like to pass people and peek into the rooms to see what’s going on.
I like to make art and take on home improvement projects. I love to travel and camp.
