In her free time she enjoys spending time with family, and friends, crafting, and traveling. She has two dogs named Max and Demi, and two sons.
Christina
Program & Innovative Lab Lead
Christina was first introduced to Willow Place while attending as a caregiver with a client, and she immediately connected with the program. After witnessing the meaningful, positive impact it had on participants, she felt inspired to become more involved. Before officially joining the team in 2019, she dedicated her time as a weekly volunteer, deepening her understanding and passion for the work.
On her days off, Christina enjoys spending quality time with her family, whether they’re out sightseeing, cheering on sports games, or gathered around a board game at home. She also loves relaxing at the beach and spending time with her dog, Mia.
Brittany
Program Lead
Brittany first joined Willow Place in 2022 as a volunteer, learning the program through mentorship from the staff. She quickly connected with the environment and the participants, and her enthusiasm led her to step into a part‑time Program Assistant role. Over time, her dedication and leadership continued to shine, and she has now grown into the Program Lead role at Willow Place.
Outside of work, Brittany is a devoted boy mom who loves to cook, watch movies, and spend time with friends. She also enjoys being outdoors, traveling, and soaking up the sun whenever she can.
Marissa

Marissa joined our team in January 2024. She came to Willow Place with years of experience working with disabled Adults at another Day Center providing Community Engagement, and Recreational Activities in the community.
Marissa spends a lot of her free time at the Ocean, as her love for the water brings her peace and joy. She has a love for animals, as she was previously a pet groomer, and has two dogs herself. She spends a lot of her time crafting and creating her own pieces to sell as she has a small business she attends to in her free time.

Kristin
Program Assistant
I’m passionate about creating inclusive, welcoming spaces for people with disabilities. You can catch me smiling and joining in the laughter of this fun work environment. My experience includes working as a Camp Counselor and Activity Leader at another day center both serving the Disability community.
In my free time you can find me trying new classes at the library, spending time with my family, and maybe breaking out in random dancing! I look forward to meeting you, your client, or loved one.
Ashley
Program Assistant
A mom with a special needs son who has found a passion in wanting to assist people and held an interest in the medical field as a profession. It is through working as a care provider that Ashley was introduced to Willow Place, and she has been with us ever since. When away from Willow Place Ashley enjoys evening walks, reading, crafting, gardening and spending time with her family.
