As the OFS Human Resources Manager, Kitty leads all aspects of the human resources function, including attracting and hiring top talent, providing positive employee relations support to managers and employees, administering benefits, and enhancing existing policies, procedures and programs to sustain a healthy and thriving culture. In addition, she is a key member of the senior leadership team.

Kitty earned her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a minor in Management and Marketing from the University of Missouri St. Louis. She also is SHRM-CP Certified.

Kitty’s volunteer experience has centered around children and education. Throughout school, she tutored kids with learning disabilities. During summers, she worked as a teacher’s aide, helping support students with autism, as well as children with physical disabilities.

Kitty enjoys spending time with her husband, three boys, and two bonus children. She loves to go camping and enjoys shopping. Her bucket list includes traveling the Appalachian Trail and building a she-shed (complete with electricity) for her woodworking and power tools. In addition, Kitty likes to convince herself that she is immediately an expert on anything she watches on YouTube or Netflix, like pottery throwing, bush-crafting, and woodworking; however, these claims have yet to be verified.

From Kitty: 

“I love having the opportunity to help create an environment that promotes creativity, collaboration, and positivity. Doing what I do not only allows me to help managers and employees grow and develop, but also helps me improve as a person. The fact that I get to do what I love for an organization that works to reduce food insecurity is the icing, whip cream and cherry on top.”
