Tayne Richard

How long at Y: 9yrs & counting!

Favorite thing about working with Y: The people I meet and the privilege to serve members. 

Greatest Accomplishment: Accepting the offer as Membership Director.  Thanks to the YMCA of Austin I put myself through college and integrated my degrees and internships to allow me the experience to bring something new to the table with my working knowledge of YMCA culture and what makes us different.  I have a great sense of accomplishment knowing I started as Front Desk Staff and worked my way up to my goal.

Motto/Quote:  "In this world you will have trouble.  But take heart!  I have overcome the world." John 16:33 (NIV84)

Favorite Austin Activity/Hot Spot: I enjoy Country 2-stepping, Kayaking, Hunting and am an active member in Worship Arts at Shoreline Christian Center.

Favorite Movie: Steel Magnolias

Cats or Dogs: I have a 5 year old silver dapple miniature Dachshund named Shooter.
