In this role, Sharon will provide connection and maintain relationships between MVTC and D.C. and its surrounding communities, and include the families, educators and mental health professionals who help support our mission.
Sharon received a Bachelor of Arts magna cum laude in Art and English with a Psychology minor from James Madison University and spent twenty years working in sales, marketing, and business development for a diverse array of companies and organizations. It was her passion for serving others and desire to assist families that led her to pursue a career in mental and behavioral health.

She served on the board of both the Eating Disorder Network of Maryland and Rock Recovery. Through these roles, she furthered her passion for assisting families, connecting community, and being a resource for others.
Although originally from Lancaster, PA, Sharon and her husband, Matt, live in Catonsville, MD with their two daughters. She is an avid health and fitness enthusiast. When not doing outreach in the community, you’ll find her running boot camps, practicing Pilates, playing tennis, or spending quality time with her husband and two active girls. Her passion for making meaningful relationships has been a common thread throughout her diverse career, and she continues to do this important work enthusiastically with Mountain Valley Treatment Center.
