Keri’s path crossed with InStepp when she started volunteering in March, 2016 thanks to her longtime friend Sybil Bowick, who shares Keri’s passion for Community Service. Keri currently serves on the Board of Directors for InStepp and supports all the programming the organization provides. Her motivation is to serve and uplift women in need. Working with InStepp has enriched her because of her exposure to people from different cultures and backgrounds.

Keri’s message to individuals who are considering giving back to the community is simple. “Let your passion lead you!”
