She comes to us with a degree in Organizational Management and Leadership from Friends University and significant experience balancing budgets of over a million dollars, creating databases, organizing events, administering grants, doing payroll, and helping with publicity. She finds joy in supporting the staff and feels her job is to make others’ jobs easier. She also shares #BMLC’s belief that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and respect. She believes this organization is one where she can thrive and help other people succeed and thrive as well. In her spare time, Phyllis and her husband like to go to car shows and do home improvements. She also loves doting on her little Yorkie dog, gardening, painting, being an amateur photographer, and playing the ukulele.
