👋 I'm Paris, a seasoned program director with a passion for driving positive change and fostering community connections. Currently, I am dedicated to my role as the Assistant Director for Ascend WV, where I help lead a remote worker attraction and retention program that aims to empower West Virginia through an infusion of remote work and the development of our outdoor economy.🚀 My career journey has been deeply rooted in the non-profit sector since 2016, and I've had the privilege of making a meaningful impact on the lives of those I serve. I am particularly proud of my work with inovative groups, where I've honed my skills in managing complex projects and programs.🌟 My professional interests and expertise lie in project and program directing, where I see the potential to effect transformative change. I thrive on the challenge of developing and implementing innovative strategies to achieve organizational goals while fostering a sense of belonging within the communities I serve.🤝 As a community developer, I'm committed to building strong and inclusive networks that empower individuals and organizations to reach their full potential. I firmly believe that collaboration and open communication are key drivers of success.🔧 When I'm not immersed in the world of project and program directing, you can find me tinkering with a bicycle, exploring "Almost Heaven", or striving to create lasting memories with my beautiful family.📬 I'm always open to connecting with like-minded professionals, sharing ideas, and exploring potential collaborations.
