I co-founded Hustlers for Humanity with my twin brother, a "social club for service," that integrates young professionals into the community as volunteers. Since we launched on Earth Day 2014 in Santa Barbara, 500+ volunteers have joined, and collectively we've volunteered thousands of hours and supported nearly 100 non-profits. In running Hustlers for Humanity, I have focused on: - team building + creating a "culture of service" within the team- hosting team-based volunteer opportunities that create a sense of togetherness - coaching my team 1-on-1 + empowering them in personal volunteerism - building relationships with area non-profits and supporting them with their volunteer engagement - connecting with local companies about their Community Engagement strategies- designing + producing fundraisers + social events that drive cause awareness + build community - identifying important causes like Human Trafficking, and maximizing our impact toward these issues - developing myself as a leader and positive example for my team

Serve Community is an early-stage startup + mobile games platform, designed to unite humanity by merging play and service.

I coordinated volunteers for big events + fundraisers, including: Summer Solstice Celebration, TEDxSantaBarbara, Awakened World International Film Festival, Santa Barbara Open Streets, Steamboat Movement Fest, California Wine Festival, California Brew Festival, and Central Coast Wine Classic.I also designed + produced events that raise awareness + funds for causes I believe in. I produced two International Women's Day events supporting local Human Trafficking survivors; an arts event called ShakeSBeer; and many smaller events that introduced volunteers to local non-profits.

Built a direct sales + marketing team across the US.

Edited the Op-Ed Page, including columns + letters to the editor; wrote guest columns, and wrote obituaries.
