​Secretary since 2022: Ryan White


​Ryan moved to Key West in 2018 from Clearwater, Florida. Originally from Northeast Iowa, I’m happy to be sharing the sunshine with you all here in paradise. You can also catch me on occasion performing as the drag entertainer Eden Deck. I’ve worked in the service industry nearly all of my adult life. I’m proud to be a part of the board and do what I can to help fellow hospitality workers when possible.

Treasurer since 2022: Jody Alwood
 
After vacationing in Key West for 20 years, and experiencing the wonderful people of this enchanted island, my husband Lee and I moved to our “happy place” in 2014.
I am the proud mother of two strong, beautiful and independent daughters and “GaGa” to Logan and Charlotte.  In my former life, I founded and operated a manufacturing company in Pennsylvania where I wore many hats including CFO for the company.
  I am so very proud to be working with Sister Season Fund. I look forward to partnering with them to make a difference in the lives of the people in the service industry of this island that give so much of themselves to us each and every day.
