Profiles
Alex Agosti
Emily Carrere
Emily is a new member of the SEPA National Preparedness and Response Corps. She is whole-heartedly accepting of the fact her AmeriCorps stipend will be channeled 60% into rent and 40% into the ice cream vending machine in the staff cafeteria.
Melissa Hunsberger
Melissa wears many hats at the Red Cross, sometimes literally. She's the in-house curator of vintage uniforms and specializes in answering the phone.
Christine Jones
Chrissy is recent college graduate from Carnegie Mellon University; however, she is originally from the suburbs of Philadelphia so she is excited to return to the eastern (better) side of the state. She is a sports enthusiast, with her favorite team being the Phillies. She is thrilled to be joining the Red Cross team as an AmeriCorps member.
Leah Kristie
Leah is a member of the Financial Development team. She has unwieldy passions for both grammar and mint chocolate chip ice cream.
Reka Magge
Reka is a recent college graduate from The College of New Jersey. Being that she is originally from New Jersey, she is a big fan of the hit reality TV show, Jersey Shore! (PUMP that fist!…oh and lets not forget, GTL) She likes long walks on the beach, candlelit dinners, babies, and reading the Americorps Blog site!
Aurora Muñoz
Aurora is the new Philly Fellow serving at the Southeastern Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Red Cross. She is a long way from her childhood home, Dallas, TX, but loves Philly's vibe. She enjoys reading and going to the movies (loves previews!). She hopes to learn much about the Red Cross and the nonprofit sector during her fellowship and to look like a "grown-up" in her business casual attire (most people think she's 16!).
Donna Palmieri
Jennifer Petitt
Jennifer is a member of the 2010-2011 AmeriCorps team. Prior to being a part of the National Preparedness and Response Corps, Jennifer has been a truck driver, a farmer, a cat whisperer and welcomes anyone to challenge her self-proclaimed title as Tetris Master.
Robin Rabinowitz
Robin is a philosophy major with a fondness for contact sports. When not contemplating life, the universe, and everything, she has been known to practice Tae Kwon Do and play rugby.
