Meet Trista

I want to spend my life harnessing my gifts of empathy and hospitality to help enrich the lives of others. My life experiences, and faith in my Creator lead me to NAOMI. I am grateful to create a welcoming environment each week while providing support to the community and housing branches of NAOMI, continuously ensuring families receive nurturing care.

I believe isolation is a human's worst enemy.  I know what it feels like to be alone and without healthy relationships. That is why I have dedicated my time to serving at NAOMI. I believe in the power of relationships and I am honored to be able to walk alongside other women in their journey to healing. I have experienced 5 years of warm meals and honest relationships at NAOMI and I look forward to spending many more. I am really excited to use my talents to create welcoming spaces and be a comforting, calm energy for women to gather and build closer connections each week.

My thriving superpower is listening with an open heart and non-judgemental mind.

My survival kryptonite is not taking time to check in with myself regularly.
