Trusted Mentors welcomes two new employees this week: Alex Richards and Trina Simpson! Alex is a teacher and educator at heart, having spent the past 13 years teaching middle school?math in Washington D.C. and Indianapolis. Alongside his wonderful husband and their three adorable cats, he calls Northeast Indianapolis home. Growing up in Indy, Alex has developed a deep connection to the local community and hopes to expand his reach with Trusted Mentors. In his spare time, Alex volunteers with Outdoor Afro and loves exploring nature and the outside world. He finds his peace through searching the woods for native plants, birds, and the occasional spider or butterfly. He also coaches high school swimming at Brebeuf and loves the thrill of competition. Alex is excited to be joining the Trusted Mentors team and looks forward to growing himself, Trusted Mentors, and the broader Indianapolis community. Trina is excited to be joining Trusted Mentors as an External Recruiter. She has several years of experience working in the community service sector with Edna Martin Christian Center and in the Martindale Brightwood area, where she grew up. In her spare time, Trina enjoys event planning and throwing parties for local children. In addition, she and her husband pastor a small church on the northwest side. She loves reading, a variety of arts and crafts, and finding a bargain of any kind. Please help us welcome our new staff! #TrustedMentors #mentor #mentoring
