I lost several friends to the AIDS pandemic in the late 80s and was happy to find PCC when I moved to Charleston from Richmond. I started volunteering for PCC in 1993 and in 2004, was honored to become part of the staff at this vital nonprofit organization. My first career interest was Theater. I designed and painted scenery for many organizations, including the Richmond Ballet Theatre, Theater Three in New York and Spoleto here in Charleston. I still love live shows and music of any kind!

I have been with PCC for 17 years. I originally chose to work here because I enjoy educating and empowering people to enhance their quality of life. I am grateful to work with an incredible group of people whom I consider family. If the sun is out and I am not working, then I would likely be found at the beach or pool. I enjoy painting and refurbishing furniture, needlepoint, gardening, and crossword puzzles.I love to use humor and see people laugh. I am originally from Memphis, TN, but I made my home in Charleston over 20 years ago.

I chose to work at PCC I love being a part of something truly making a difference in the community. I actually love public speaking! The bigger the audience or stage, the better! I’m also an ordained Methodist Pastor (I took a leave of absence so that I could come work for PCC), so that might have something to do with it!

Nikki Lengyel

I have been working at PCC a little over a year now. I’ve wanted to get into the medical side of social work for a long time and when the opportunity presented itself, I could not pass it up. This organization provides tremendous support for clients from helping them navigate the diagnosis, to assisting them in living everyday healthy lives. A fun fact about me is I am really good at finding four leaf clovers! I found one while on horseback during a lesson!

I have been with PCC for two years. My favorite thing about working here is the relationships I get to build with my clients. It’s really amazing getting to watch some of them grow in their independence, confidence, and knowledge of their health over time. My husband and I have a Dalmatian named Dolly that we love! She is my running buddy and is just the sweetest dog.
