About Our Staff

Tracy joined Pay-It-Forward House in August of 2022. She has 16 years of non-profit and government experience.

Prior to joining Pay-It-Forward House, Tracy worked in a variety of roles at Northern Illinois Food Bank, including Human Resources, Advocacy, SNAP, and Child Nutrition over 11 years. She spent the 5 years prior to that working in deployment and family readiness for the United States Marine Corps Community Services.

Tracy volunteers with her children's elementary school PTO, as a Girl Scout leader for 2 troops, and by regularly donating blood. She assumes the best in people, but listens to enough true crime shows to know better.

Tracy has a degree in political science from East Stroudsburg University in PA, near where she grew up. She lives with her husband, 3 daughters, 2 cats, and varied aquatic life in Geneva.
Lisa has been with the Pay-It-Forward House organization since 2015. As a volunteer she served as a Friendly Face, event and office support volunteer. In the Spring of 2018, Lisa became the organization's Administrative Assistant and in the January of 2021 stepped into the "brief" role of Interim Executive Director, which turned into 20 months. Lisa is happy to be back in her preferred role as Administrative Assistant as of September 2022.
