Tammy Liddell

Executive Director and Community Leader

L’Arche has been part of my life since 1988 and the spirit of L’Arche has shaped my own spirituality and faith. When our family moved to the Seattle area over 10 years ago I was privileged to connect with L’Arche Noah Sealth as a friend, board member and now as Community Leader. I am inspired every day by the passion with which the Core Members pursue their dreams and the care and dedication of the Assistants. I am excited to be leading the community at this time of hope and promise!

Kristin Causey

Support Coordinator

Kristin (she/her) first met the Seattle L’Arche community in 2015 as a university volunteer. She has spent time as a volunteer in Peru with Jesuit Volunteer Corps and has called L’Arche and Seattle home for 5 years. Kristin enjoys supporting the three homes in our community in various ways!

Corey Hubbard

Community Life Coordinator

L’Arche has called to me at various times of transition in my life, and I finally heeded the call and moved in as a live-in assistant at Shuinota House in October 2016. Over the last several years, I have been a live-in and live-out assistant, community grocery shopper during quarantine, gardener, Formation Facilitator, retreat leader, and, most importantly, a friend. I feel lucky every day to be a part of this community and to be led by the amazing Core Members who call this place home.

Anna Kuzubova

Office Manager

“Hi Buddy!” was the first greeting I received at L’Arche over twenty years ago and those words from Jack have stayed with me and inspired me ever since. Being a “Buddy” to each Core Member and growing with them through the different stages of life, seeing the care and dedication of Assistants, and knowing the commitment of L’Arche Board members fills my life with so much joy and gratitude!

Jessica Liu

Activity Center Coordinator

Having grown up in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Jessica is very thankful to resettle in Seattle again after many years serving in South East Asia. Jessica finds joy in creating opportunities for folks to express their creativity through art and she loves to capture candid moments of friendships and everyday life through photography. In addition to Jessica’s love of walking and finding beauty in every corner of Seattle, she is learning to master some good authentic Chinese cuisine.

House Leader Staff

Our House Leader staff members oversee the daily life and operations of each L’Arche Seattle home, working directly with Assistants and volunteers, and engaging with Core Members to ensure their well-being.

Ellen Hume
Ellen HumeHouse Leader

Henri Nouwen’s writings gave me my first insights into L’Arche and also made me long for a community of authenticity and belonging. Later, working with folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities, I saw L’Arche as a true sign of hope. I was a founding member of the board at L’Arche Wavecrest in California and all these years and life later, I found my way back and I’m loving it. When I’m not at L’Arche, I’m enjoying time with friends and family.

Jason McCreery

Jason Quino McCreery (he/they) has been with L’Arche since fall of 2022. A California native, Jason made it up to Seattle via the less-direct route of New York City. He first volunteered at Angeline House back in 2016, and has enjoyed being at Angeline even more the second time. When not running around the house, Jason can most often be found hunched over a book or a flower.

Jill Sherwood
Jill SherwoodHouse Leader

Jill Sherwood (she/her) has loved her time as part of the L’Arche Seattle community since joining in November 2023. Her favorite part of being in community is the opportunity to embrace the joy in everyday small moments. In her free time, you can find Jill bouldering, running, or laughing at dad jokes.
