Meet your 2022 HOA Board. (Please Note: the website pages and content has been disable.)

We planted our roots in Crown River in May 2001. We moved here because of the amenities, the parks, the tree lined streets with sidewalks, the woods surrounding our community, the beautiful pastures on Airline Road, and the school system. It’s hard to believe that our children were in the third and fifth grades when we moved here. Our daughter, Jess, is married to Danny (a Brit), who she met while she was living in England for 3 years. Our son, Ryan, is married to Addie and they have given us two beautiful grandsons; Gray who just turned 3 and Nash who just turned 1. And Jim and I will celebrate 34 years of marriage this August. I am an Intellectual Property Paralegal with Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton. Jim and I attend Southpoint Church in McDonough and I work in our church’s Food Pantry ministry. I am devoted to Jesus, my husband, my family, and my friends. And I love spending time with my grandbabies. Last Summer, I learned that we do not have a fully elected Board, which caused us to be managed by Sentry. And under Sentry’s management, our community fell into disrepair. That started my journey of getting involved. I have invested many hours learning the details of our amenities and our property, interviewing companies for reasonable service contracts and reasonable quotes for repairs to be made. I have studied our Bylaws and Covenants and have worked with our attorney to ensure I understand the responsibilities the Board of Directors has per our Bylaws. I don’t have the answer to every issue. But I commit to be available to the community and to investigate issues as they arise to find answers and resolutions. And I commit to do my best to restore all of our amenities and common areas and to maintain them so they meet the standards set in our Covenants. But my vision isn’t just to restore our amenities and common areas. I want us to become an active, social, and connected community. A community where we know each other and feel safe, loved, and accepted. I hope you feel the same way and are excited about getting plugged in so that we can become that community. A community we all truly love coming home to.

My family moved into Crown River in 2019. I reside with my husband (Paul) and three children (Paul III, who attends Kennesaw State University; Markus, a junior at Union Grove High; and Skyelar, a sixth grader at Union Grove Middle). We have another daughter, Kayci, who now lives minutes away. I am a dedicated wife, mother, family member and church member. In my spare time, I love rooting for my children at their sporting events, playing family games, dancing, listening to music, crocheting, spending time and supporting my family and friends. For the past 15 years, I have been the co-owner of DIGITALPOiNT USA, a digital marketing company located here in Henry County. Besides co-operating a business with my husband, I am active in the community. I’ve volunteered as a basketball coach for several years for UPWARD at ELCA (Eagles Landing Christian Academy) and Lighthouse Church, and a team mom for McDonough Youth Association Wildcats and Gators baseball teams. I also currently serve on the Board of Broadway4Life Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the homeless and battered women and children in and around South Atlanta. As a Board member, I will commit and apply the time needed in serving our community. When I believe in a movement, especially when it involves my family and our lifestyle, I am motivated to play a role in its structure to make sure it’s a success. That is why I initially volunteered. I saw some issues and instead of sitting on the sideline, I got involved. As I got involved. I met concerned residents who wanted to address the issues and  help make our community what it could be…A Premier Residential Community south of Atlanta. With my motivation, passion and extreme interest to learn what I don’t know and apply what I do, I can help make our community a better place to live, as well as, being a voice for all residents.

Our family moved to Crown River in November 2019 from a suburb of Chicago Illinois. We have two boys. Our oldest, Austin is finishing up his master’s degree at Northern Illinois University. Our youngest, Max is a seventh grader at Union Grove Middle School. My wife Greta and I really enjoy living in this community and love our walks through the neighborhood. Having lived in large metropolitan areas our entire lives it’s been a pleasant change!

I am recently retired after having spent most of my career in the airline industry. I held management positions at airports in New York, Boston, Baltimore, Chicago, San Francisco and Orlando. I also served as the director of passenger flight operations for an international airline with regional headquarters in Boca Raton FL and had responsibility over 19 airports throughout North America, South America and the Caribbean. I’ve also been a small business owner having owned a deli restaurant in Illinois and a home inspection business in Florida.

I am currently an elder at Abiding Grace Lutheran Church in Covington and have served on the board of La Grange (IL) Babe Ruth Baseball as League Vice President. I’ve coached community baseball teams at all levels from youth in Little League, Ola Athletic Organization (under 12) and Babe Ruth (13-18) to adults with MABL.

My experience can hopefully provide the board with an extensive knowledge of work on budgets and contracts, analytics and brainstorming, leading projects, teambuilding, timetables, reports and recordkeeping and most importantly recruitment and motivation.

There have been significant changes to our community over the past several years. Many of the original families have moved away and pretty much all former board members are now gone. A new and younger generation of families have moved in! This is welcome and vitally important for our neighborhood to thrive. They will soon be the board members who will ensure the future of Crown River.

With the turnover of residents however, some things have fallen through the cracks. Repairs and improvements have been delayed, community violations are not being addressed, homeowner questions and concerns go unanswered for too long, and many needed projects remain idle. We need a board that will work together, plan, prioritize, set goals and get things moving again. Most importantly, we need a board that will recruit and involve the new generation of homeowners who will take over the reins and lead this neighborhood forward. I’d like to help lead the way.
