I am a visionary leader and advocate for performing arts, education, and community engagement with demonstrated talent for collaborative and strategic program development and assessment, rooted in ideals of diversity, equity and inclusion. I excel in building relationships and sustaining trust with partners and colleagues which allows me (us!) to imagine and create dynamic programs that are responsive to the needs of, created with, and positively impact, the DC metropolitan region.I strive to listen generously, celebrate success, question assumptions, and treat gratitude as a renewable resource. I'm not afraid to iterate, say no with conviction, and apologize when appropriate. I assume positive intent and appreciate a good sense of humor.
