THE PROP: Elizabeth Pasqualini cannot imagine doing anything but heading up the Jonnycake Center of Westerly, a nonprofit food pantry and social service agency.

Why did you select your profession?

In a lot of ways I feel Jonnycake selected me. I never had plans to be the executive director of the center. But I’ve learned so much and met so many people growing into this position. I can’t imagine having done anything else.

How do you keep a work-life balance?

I schedule time to get away and have fun, but honestly, when you love what you do and the people you work with, work doesn’t always feel so much like work.

If you could choose another profession, what would it be?

A career in international service/relief work.  

What is your favorite Rhode Island restaurant?

Have to give a shout out to Bridge in Westerly. They have excellent vegetarian and vegan selection and terrific cocktails – my favorite is the Mango Mule. •
