Taber Stockstill-Tornes

Hi my name is Taber Stockstill-Tornes! I was born and raised in Oklahoma, just outside of Oklahoma City. I went to the University of Oklahoma where I got a degree in Human Relations. Fiddled around in OKC a bit, backpacked in Europe a bit, then met my husband, Kevin. We lived in Chicago from 2016-2020. There I became a doula, something I’m very passionate about. Long story short, we moved to Wilmington in September 2020 and had a little boy, Howie, in October 2021! If you want the long story, please come say hi! We love getting to know knew people. I’m so excited to be at St. James!

Taber is also a member of our Outreach Commission.
