Sybil knows Warrick Dunn Charities well and she is glad to be home.

With over 20 years as Community Relations Manager at Aaron's, she spent two decades as one of WDC’s most dedicated corporate sponsors, helping grow the Homes for the Holidays program from outside. Now, she is on the inside, bringing that same passion and a deep understanding of what makes HFTH so special to the families it serves.

Before rejoining the WDC family, Sybil sharpened her operational skills as an Operations Implementation Associate at the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta. She has a gift for bringing the right people together around the right mission.

Born in Ohio, she took the scenic route through California before landing in Atlanta where Clark Atlanta University turned the city into her home forever.

Outside of work, Sybil gives back as a mentor with The Mom Community, supporting young mothers on their journey. She is a proud mom herself, cheering on her daughter Jamison at Mississippi Valley State University. In her free time, you will find her trying
new recipes or restaurants with family and friends or lacing up her sneakers for a 5K somewhere around the city.

She is excited to be back where the mission is personal.
