Fun, curious and creative seeker solves problems day-in and day-out. Why not? Life and the most interesting work is full of them. I love finding patterns, listening to histories, and activating observations into possibilities.Poverty and hunger have been the focal point of my work for over a decade. I intuitively and analytically understand social issues, and I am proud to move the needle, even if only one step at a time. I think that’s best done by honoring the past and considering the future, which hinges on understanding yourself and the people serve and work with. I build spirited relationships, rethink dynamic systems, and power through tough situations. I want nothing more than to make meaningful progress and real connections through shared values and thoughtful goals. Results are great, and I definitely make them, but I think the journey and the innovations you dream up along the way, not to mention the fellowship, is a big part of it, too.But enough about the j-o-b. I hike and walk A LOT, summer is my favorite season, rust orange is my favorite color, I love the ocean, I read about personality, psychology, and spirituality for fun.
