Owner
CurrentI am a nonprofit consultant, community organizer, and social artist based in the American West. I am the co-founder and former executive director of The Wayfaring Band, a Denver-based nonprofit that creates adventure travel and immersive learning opportunities for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. My creative work explores themes of social and cultural belonging, incorporating writing, performance, and installation art.In my capacity as co-founder and former executive director for The Wayfaring Band, I oversaw the development of an anti-ableism curriculum and helped facilitate opportunities for independence, socialization, and adventure as part of a neurodiverse community. As a working artist, I write and perform original stories that reflect my personal experiences and travels. I speak and teach on the topics of creative activism, community building, inclusion/accessibility, neurodiversity/disability, and global citizenry.Now, I offer consulting services in the areas of inclusion/accessibility, nonprofit development and management, strategic planning, creative direction, and community building. I am a seasoned facilitator and trusted community leader who celebrates differences and practices mutual aid. I try to live according to an anti-oppression ethic; in particular, I commit to being a lifelong learner and action-taker in the area of anti-racism.
