Charissa came to the UUA in 2016, after working as a church administrator at a UU congregation in New London, CT, where she was first introduced to Unitarian Universalism.

Charissa telecommutes from CT where she lives with her husband Sean, and their fierce and independent daughter Delilah. Charissa loves spending time with family and friends and is a board member for A Sacred Place, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing rehabilitative programs and educational opportunities for incarcerated women in Connecticut.
