Tammy Themel
CEO
As the CEO of accessABILITY, Tammy carries out the strategic plans and vision established by the Board of Directors. She drives the team at accessABILITY towards “more is more” – more services, for more people with disabilities, leading to more independence and ultimately a better community for everyone. She is passionate about pressing for a change in the domestic violence and sexual assault that impacts persons with disabilities, which happens at a much higher rate than the population as a whole. Tammy has an MBA from Purdue. Tammy enjoys weaving, quilting, sewing, crocheting, as well as growing tomatoes, reading, and historical re-enacting. She has never met an alpaca or fainting goat that she didn’t like. “I love working at accessABILITY because it lets me stretch to achieve the truth of ‘we must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history,’ said by Sonia Johnson. I get to see the change we are making in our communities on a daily basis – this is energizing and humbling.”
