Volunteer Profile
Athena Jaharis
A junior at Torrey Pines High School, Athena Jaharis is president of the school History Club, as well as staff writer for the Falconer, the school newspaper.
She has volunteered at the Whaley House most every Saturday and many Sundays as well since August of last year. Athena says she loves working with head docent Casey O'Hanlon and co worker Robin Sweeton. Athena has lived in San Diego all her life and is a member of Habitat for Humanity International and a member of the Civilian Corps in the American Civil War Society reenacting organization, where she does extensive research on life during the Civil War, an accomplished seamstress she creates her own period dresses and also enjoys Civil War era dance. In addition to her docent work at the Whaley House she is also on the Historic Clothing committee and has helped with the Halloween history programs.
Athena would like to pursue a career in history, perhaps in Art Conservation. She is a joy to be around and an inspiration in her quest for knowledge of the period to the rest of us.
