Southeast Indiana

With over half a decade of nonprofit experience, a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a Master of Arts in Philanthropic Studies and an associate’s degree in paralegal studies, Shaney joined the Center with a wealth of knowledge. Splitting her time between supporting the Southeast region and the coordination program as a whole, Shaney organizes and runs events, assists with grant administration, and is excited to strengthen the hope of local congregations and communities.

When not at work, Shaney loves being outdoors in nature and spends her time visiting zoos across the country, as well as museums and art galleries. She loves to garden, read, and bake (and is a county-fair ribbon-winning baker), as well as spending time with her spouse, her cat Percy, and her dog Charlie Pumpkin.
