An Atlanta native, I have a unique knowledge of the city’s history and decades of transformations. While I've traveled and lived abroad, I've always been proud to call Atlanta HOME. This makes me a great resource for all things ATL. My philosophy, “There’s no place like home,” stems from my deep belief that every person should have a safe place to live. The more I understand the complex issues that lead to housing insecurity, the more I use my resources to help. With every successful closing, the LaVista Hills Team donates to help people and pets in need of shelter or food assistance. I love that Bolst also creates opportunities for hands-on volunteering in this arena. My husband and I have two amazing daughters who are venturing into adulthood, while our dog Matzoh Ball tries to run the home.

My husband of 28 years and I have lived in the N Decatur area since 1996. We've moved 3 times and can still walk to each house. We love where we live. Our grown children live nearby and they have helped me recognize the housing crisis for 20-30 year-olds. My life is all about my family, art, travel, activism, hiking, service work and helping people.
Bolst and the LaVista Hills Team are always looking for great people to partner with us. Reach out if you have questions!

These agencies are doing GREAT work to provide HOMES for the most vulnerable.
YOU can help us support them with every closing!
Home is Where the Pets Are!
We know how important it is for people to have a home, a safe haven for themselves and their families, including their fur kids.
Sometimes, people find themselves facing homelessness or forced to live in housing or shelters that won't accept pets.
When this happens, pets are often surrendered permanently to shelters that don't have the capacity to keep them.
YOU can help prevent this from happening by supporting Paws Between Homes OR by becoming a foster!
Paws Between Homes serves as a safety net for Atlanta-area pets until their humans can return to stable housing.
Home is Where the Pets Are @ Lavista Hills Team/Bolst:
For each home we close, LHT donates to Paws Between Homes.
Contributions cover the cost of fostering a pet, including:
Food, Basic Vet Costs, and Supplies

Welcoming Refugees to Their New Homes
AAA Georgia is an all-volunteer organization that works in partnership with resettlement agencies to welcome Afghan refugees and families to our community, orient them to life in the U.S., and support them in establishing self-sufficiency.
Volunteers assist refugees in navigating their new lives, understanding our educational and medical systems, job market and customs. AAA Ga. has provided furniture, household items, clothing, school supplies, appliances, and other essentials to hundreds of newcomers, and set up dozens of apartments.
Volunteers coordinate and distribute donations, provide information and referrals about employment and trainings, and connect newcomers with the support and resources they need as they begin pursuit of their American Dream.
LaVista Hills Team/Bolst & Refugee Resettlement
With each closing, we donate items on newcomer wish lists (rugs, diapers, linens, housewares).; we provided dozens of Welcome Kits to new arrivals (with Bolst).;
We ask our clients to save unwanted furnishings & housewares in good condition, which we deliver to refugees; and we volunteer our time.
