Hi, my name is Grace Jisa. Growing up, I spent much of my time volunteering at Saint Damien Church, helping support individuals experiencing homelessness through food drives and holiday celebrations. These experiences allowed me to build meaningful connections within the community at a young age and continue to shape my passion for ensuring all people are well-fed and feel seen.

Recently I graduated from the University of Dayton with a degree in Communications and a minor in Marketing. I currently work at the Options Clearing Corporation as an Associate in Clearing & Settlement Operations. I learned about Renaissance through a former colleague at Cboe and was immediately drawn to its mission to end homelessness in Chicago. I look forward to becoming more involved through the Associate Board.
