Paula has served as Executive Director since April 2002, but served as a dedicated volunteer for approximately 8 years before becoming a staff member.

As a mother of 3 children (18, 15 & 7), Paula is equally passionate about helping women experience joy in the journey of motherhood by providing education and support to women and their families.
