CASE MANAGER
As a graduate of the University of South Carolina I joined the CHEP South Carolina case management team eager to help the veterans of the city where I grew up. Over the years I have held many roles with CHEP, growing our network and influence within the community, and now I am using those connections to bring our veterans the best resources available. The goal is not to just provide a roof and a bed but, from the first moment a homeless veteran enters our program, they know they are in the best transitional housing program in the state. With a living situation that not only humanizes but also restores a sense of community and self-respect within our veterans I believe we are well on our way to achieving these goals. When I am outside of work, I like to spend time with my family and dogs playing and going for walks.
