Sonya Long

Director of Operations

Sonya is the Director of Operations at Rumple. For some, Sonya needs no introduction. She was baptized at Rumple many years ago and has been working in Rumple’s nursery for over a year.

Sonya, a native of Watauga County, has spent the last 18 years at Appalachian State University as a Business Officer, and before that, 8 years with the Town of Blowing Rock. Sonya has one grown son, Quentin Long, who resides in Boone. She is excited to share this chapter with Rumple in the town where her working career began and where she calls home.

Why did you choose Rumple?

My background in the church called me back, and an opportunity arose at Rumple. When I looked into the congregation, it looked like a vibrant, engaged, missional church, and I was sold!
