Change is one of the only constants, demanding dedication and creativity. Novel diseases, societal instability, and more frequent and more severe natural disasters make it clear that both existing best practices and new tools are needed for successful crisis management. The creative application of smart practices is necessary for true resilience in this day and age.Emergency response & management as a field is a tight knit group and I enjoy working in small and dedicated teams. My background spans the range of mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery, with a broad emergency management knowledge base.We have a responsibility to prepare, both in our personal lives and in our work, to reduce our vulnerabilities and respond more flexibly when they are threatened. I believe in the whole community approach, and that through successful prevention and preparation the wellbeing of the whole community benefits. While our changing world demands that we adapt, some things will always hold true. It's often said that it’s better to connect before an incident, during our blue-sky days, and that's at least one thing that social media can help with.
