“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.” ― Mahatma GandhiIn the early 1970s I was recruited to volunteer as an intake counselor at a free clinic operating out of a church basement just outside of Washington D.C. This was the beginning of a 40+ year career in public service, as a community organizer, consumer advocate, founder of local and national philanthropies, work with groups like Project VOTE!, National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy, Center for Community Organizations, VOLUNTEER: National Center for Citizen Involvement, Institute of American Indian Arts and Culture Development, INDEPENDENT SECTOR, and the National Wildlife Refuge Association. I have worked as a national lobbyist on matters related to nonprofit advocacy/lobbying and charitable deductions/tax policy related to non-profit organizations. I have founded several local and national organizations and have assisted many others on such subjects as fundraising, leadership development, strategic planning, and revitalization and sustainability. Board service has included Equestrian Partners in Conservation, Montgomery Countryside Alliance, Friends of Callithea Farm, United Way of Santa Fe County, Statewide Nonprofit Association Development Project, Boulder Area Communities Foundation, Colorado Association of Nonprofit Organizations, and the National Neighborhood Coalition, among others.

Listed skills include Nonprofits, Strategic Planning, Leadership Development, Policy, and 13 others.
