As our society has undergone a tremendous awakening this year due to COVID-19 and the acknowledgement of social injustices highlighted by the BLM movement, I will focus on providing an environment that is sensitive to our community’s differences and abilities, while I also continue to oversee and manage our administrative and internal processes.”
States Ashlyn Davis, HCP’s Executive Director & Curator: “Over the past two years, Theresa has become an invaluable member of the HCP staff, overseeing the development and integration of new policies, procedures, and processes that support our mission as well as our values.
