Other than her wonderful husband, Joel, rescue dogs are Rhonda’s number one love.  On any given Saturday or Sunday, Rhonda can be found on Sullivan’s Island with her four legged friends, a tennis ball and plenty of water in tow.  Rhonda’s passion for rescue dogs stem from her conviction that all living animals – person or otherwise – have value, should be respected and, above all, need love. 

Rhonda is proud of her work helping the City of Charleston and other non-profit corporations redevelop blighted and vacant properties as affordable housing throughout Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Georgetown and Orangeburg counties.
