Sanae Ellis-WileyDirector & Program CoordinatorSanae A. Ellis-Wiley was born on January 8, 1974 in Compton to the mother Denice Montgomery and Father Lewis Ellis. She is the oldest child of four, to her Mother and Father. Sanae attended Centennial High School and Dorsey High School. Growing up in Compton, in the late 70’s and early 80’s Sanae learned about the gang culture and drugs within many African American families. Though Sanae never got involved in gangs, the father of her two children was killed by law enforcement during the 92 Riots of LA. Sanae being an incredibly young teenage mother at 19 with two children began her journey of survival and motherhood without the support of the father who was murdered. Eventually Sanae went to nursing school and got involved in nursing and later commercial bus driving training and received her commercial driver’s license where she worked over a decade until she reconnected with an old childhood friend by the name of Yusef-Andre Wiley who was soon to be released from prison. Yusef-Andre Wiley proposed to Sanae and they were married on June 23, 2012 in the SF Bay Area where Sanae would move to until 2016, during which time Sane and Yusef would give birth to Amir S. Wiley bringing their combined total of children to 5 boys and one girl.
Sanae, no longer working in the transportation field or nursing found another niche in serving the community by volunteering at Oakland Food Giveaway and other related community work. Most of her volunteer work came through supporting her husband’s work at Timelist by coordinating community events and fundraisers. After Sanae and Yusef’s son Amir was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and this was a turning point for Sanae to get more engaged in community work. She later went on to renew her nursing license and certificate to become a Professional Supervised Visitation Monitor. This resulted in her brainchild Warm Hearts which includes a Food Pantry and Family Reunification services. Sanae is the Chief Financial Officer of both the Timelist Group, Inc. and sister company Timelist, Inc which is a Management Company. She has roles that extend from being an Administrative Supervisor to the Director and Coordinator of the Warm Hearts Program which operates separately from the Timelist Group Reentry Housing work. Sanae has gained the reputation of being a go-getter, a visionary, an investor, an event planner, a boss lady and autism mom with a big heart for helping others, especial her family. Today, Sanae maintains her leadership role and resides in the Antelope Valley of LA County with her husband and children |
