Meet Kathy Hale, New Board Vice-chair
Board Vice-chair, Kathy Hale has over 30 years of banking experience, primarily in the areas of commercial and residential real estate lending, and has spent the past five years as a CRA Analyst with UBS Bank USA. Kathy has served on nonprofit boards including the Utah Community Reinvestment Corporation, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and Salt Lake Neighborhood Housing Services, and was appointed to a directorship on the Utah Housing Corporation Board of Directors from 1993 to 2001. She holds an MBA from the University of Utah and a BA from Washington State University.
Kathy first became involved with TURN in 2005 when asked to join the Housing & Development Committee. It did not take long to figure out that TURN is a remarkable organization with effective leadership and a uniquely talented and dedicated staff. “It was an honor to accept an invitation to join the Board in 2007 and I continue to be inspired and motivated by such a wonderful group of creative, motivated and compassionate individuals.”
“Although a bit of a trek, I am blessed to reside in the beautiful Ogden Valley where I can pursue my fascination for gardening and nature. We are delighted to be anticipating the birth of our first grandchild in November.”


"I am an artist", said Kathy Thomas when asked to describe herself. "And there's a lot of talents I can do, like exercise dancing. I do word search and jigsaw puzzles. I do cursive writing and I can do printing. I am good at bowling." Kathy says she has lived in many places in Utah, and currently loves the little 3-bedroom house she shares with two roommates. She is happy that she can walk to the market and her bank. She also likes the Orem Center Street Day Program she attends because of the friends and all the creative activities. "I think being an artist is real good. You can make pretty pictures and hang them up everywhere."
