Qiana Mosby-BrownOutreach CoordinatorQiana joined the Ted E Bear Hollow team in July 2011. She started her career as an elementary teacher, moving on to teach high school English and British and American Literature at the junior college level. Those years of classroom teaching coupled with her sales background made her decision to come on board as Ted E. Bear Hollow’s Outreach Coordinator a natural fit. Although Qiana is not an Omaha native, she has a passion for her work in the north and south Omaha Communities. Her work with children of all age groups and extensive travel as a military spouse of 14 years has shown her that the problems plaguing youth are not unique to any one city or nation. Qiana works hard to share the Ted E Bear Hollow mission with the north and south Omaha communities through the “Growing through Loss” program. Qiana is the mother of two young girls and in her spare time enjoys reading, writing and cooking. |
