Meet the RISE staff…
ALEXIS OWENS
Minister of Organizations and Operations (MOO)
What do you actually do with RISE?
Boiled down, I am the wizard from the Wizard of OZ. I am behind the scenes keeping all of the gears rotating and wrangling all of the RISE lions and tigers and bears!
What do you like to do for fun?
I love to read, listen to music, and hang out with other incredible beings!
What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
I have worked at Klines since 2013 and the Dairy Bar will forever hold my heart! A favorite flavor you ask? Impossible! But a few of my favorites would have to be Salted Caramel Crunch, Peanut Butter Cookies and Cream, Pumpkin, and Peppermint.
Who is your favorite superhero?
Deadpool. 'Nuff said.

CHRIS ZEPP
Minister of Communications, Care, etc.
What do you actually do with RISE?
I manage the regular communications of the community through text, e-mail, social media, newsletter, and the website. I also coordinate the sharing and addressing of care needs and prayer requests within the RISE community. And I'll do pretty much anything else that needs to be done - as long as I am asked nicely :-)
What do you like to do for fun?
In my limited free time, I enjoy music, humor, spectator sports, board and card games, puzzles, reading, movies and TV, and (usually!) being a karate and band dad.
What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
Smiley's Dirty Brownie
Who is your favorite superhero?
Captain Hindsight :-)
