Board Members
Logan Myers
Founding Board Member
Interim President
Logan has lived most of his life in Northern Nevada. He completed graduate school in 2017 at the University of Nevada, Reno with a PhD in Cellular and Molecular Biology. His research interests are in neurobiology and genetics, focusing on understanding the developmental mechanisms of neurodegenerative disease. Outside of science, he is the lead estimator for Rayco, a local drywall business in Reno, for 10 years.
Logan met Katie via their parents’ relationship and he did his best to take on a role as an older brother and role model for her. While his introduction to Katie and Kimberly happened while attending graduate school, nevertheless, they quickly became family and a source for inspiration. Katie was very open to making new friends and creating wonderful relationships with the people around her. She was as far as you can get from shy and Logan really appreciate how engaged she was with the world around her.
Logan finds it amazing to see the diversity of people that benefit from the resources that the KTGF organizes. He thinks it is incredible to see the organization doing its best to provide life changing opportunities as well as assistance with living needs for young children, adults, and elderly within the community. Logan looks forward to carrying out planned future events, creating donation processes, as well as opportunities that KTGF provides to the community.
Danyelle Myers
Founding Board Member
Co-Vice President
A Northern Nevada native, Danyelle works as an OB/Gyn in Carson City. Katie and Kimberly became an integral part of her family shortly after meeting her now husband Logan Myers.
One could spend a life-time attempting to define Katie without success as her genuine beauty is unparalleled. Katie poured her soul into everything that she did and made loving others appear effortless. Even as a life-long learner, Katie taught Danyelle what it was to accept, love, uplift and give back to those around; something that can’t be ascertained from a textbook.
It is an honor and a privilege to be part of the Katie Grace Foundation which continues to propagate Katie’s morals throughout our community. Kimberly’s ability to capture the essence of who Katie was as a person and model a non-profit promoting love, compassion and support for others is impressive. Danyelle looks forward to being part of the Katie Grace Foundation family and continuing to give to others what Katie has given us.
Brenda Green
Founding Board Member
Treasurer
Raised in Oregon until the 8th grade, Brenda lived the majority of her life in California before retiring to Arizona. She and her husband share a blended family of 4 adult children and a grandbaby on the way. Fondly known as Katie’s “Ant”, Brenda’s nickname for Katie was Bug. Sleepovers were a special time together and Brenda “loved how Katie made you feel you were the only important person in her world”.
Brenda’s financial experience has lent perfectly to the role of Katie Grace Foundation Treasurer. The foundation “embodies the true heart of Katie and I am grateful to be a small part in a beautiful world that Kim has created in honor of Katie”. Outside the foundation, Brenda loves to bowl, play cards, and work in her yard.
Adonica Ivertson
Secretary
My name is Adonica Iverson. I grew up in Central Illinois. All of my work life has been spent in healthcare - on the business management and provider education side. I was with Christie Clinic in Champaign, IL for over 20 years before moving to Portland and helping grow The Oregon Clinic over the next 10 years. The call of grandchildren brought me to Nevada where I retired from Northern Nevada HOPES in 2022 as the Revenue Cycle Director. I feel very fortunate to have been a part of these very diverse and stellar organizations, all of which provided me with many volunteer opportunities to make an impact on others lives.
Volunteering has always been a very important part of my life. Shortly after retiring, I connected with the Katie Grace Foundation and was so inspired with Kimberly’s vision for our community. I am particularly focused on the Katie Grace closets/boutiques that provide clothing and shoes to those families, adults, children experiencing hardships. The gratitude and love that you get from the people you help is the best gift - every child's smile fills me with joy. I am so honored to be on the Katie Grace Foundation Board. There are so many great things we can do together!

Agata Gawronski
Board Member
Hi, my name is Agata Gawronski, and I’m originally from Poland, where I was born and raised. After earning a master’s degree in social work, I immigrated to the United States to start a new chapter in my life. I began my career as a substance use disorder counselor, which gave me a deep appreciation for the power of connection and community.
In 2011, I transitioned into an administrative role and have been serving as the director of a licensing board ever since. It’s been a rewarding experience that’s allowed me to bring people together, solve problems, and make a meaningful impact on the field.
Over the years, I’ve also been involved with various nonprofit organizations, and giving back to the community has always been a big part of who I am.
Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors—whether it’s skiing, hiking, or traveling to explore new places. I also enjoy live music and cherish moments with my 21-year-old son and our beloved dog, Franklin. I’m excited to bring my experiences, skills, and passion to the board and contribute to the important work of Katie Grace Foundation.​​
