Companion Spotlight

What is working at Noble Companion like? 

I find Noble Companion to be flexible for my needs. I feel the organization is well organized and communicates well. It is great knowing that no question is too silly or concern is unheeded. I also feel that what I do is valued and much needed. I wanted to do something that really meant something to someone. The little things are everything in this work.

Describe Noble Companion in 3 words?

Responsive, Compassionate, Kind.

What is something unique about you (a fun fact) that few people are aware of?

I almost find sport in trying to understand viewpoints, beliefs and cultures different than my own. You will find me dancing wherever I feel moved to because I think you should express joy at any age!  My daughter always says I could find a connection with literally anyone, anywhere, about anything.

What is your favorite thing (activity or hobby) to do when not working with our clients?

I love bird watching, being with my dogs (or any animal). I love pickleball, Scrabble, running, reading and music (everything from The Smiths to Kendrick). I love stand-up comedy.

What is one thing you cannot live without?

Nature. I need to feel a part of it. I need to feel small and insignificant and a part of the universe.

What is your Favorite quote?

"I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain." - James Baldwin
