I am the Climate Fund Manager at the Park City Community Foundation. Hailing from Chicago, I ventured westward to collaborate with the National Park Service. In 2008, with the support of over 30 public and private partnerships, I pioneered a natural resources education program for the U.S. Forest Service in northern California. My decade-long leadership of an environmental education site on the Oregon coast for a consortium of Northwest Oregon school districts earned him a spotlight on PBS NewsHour, thanks to my innovative and collaborative strategies. Adding to my academic accomplishments, I received a master’s in educational business administration in 2018. True to My passion for seasonal work, I consistently dedicated the winter months, from 2006 to 2021, to the Sundance Film Festival. 2018 My long-time partner and I tied the knot, choosing Park City as our year-round home.My commitment to the community shines through various active participation in numerous committees and boards, such as More than Music, Community Foundation Climate Collaborative, Park City's Green Business Program, Park City's Sustainable Tourism, and the feasibility study for the Bonanza Park project (and now the CCL where I hope to bring my collaborative spirit to facilitate action in the climate space). When not immersed in professional or community endeavors, My wife, Brittnie, and I savor the myriad activities that Park City's seasons offer and are also proud curators of an impressive board game collection.
