Over the last 20 years, I've been a member of Twin Oaks Community, a housing collective, a student housing cooperative, and a cohousing community. I've helped start two small worker co-operatives and a small car-sharing system. I've visited dozens of communities and cooperatives, in the US and in Europe. I've given workshops and presentations on intentional community and topics such as consensus and facilitation. Living in community and furthering the larger cooperative movement has been a primary focus of my entire adult life.I've played a formal or informal role, on a limited or ongoing basis, with a number of projects including, Board member and consultant to the forming community Ecovillage Charlottesville, consultant to the West Coast Communities Conference, staff facilitator for PEACH, a community health care fund.At Twin Oaks I've had many jobs, including, manager of the Twin Oaks Communities Conference, serving on numerous community committees, production and management for the community's soyfoods business, and serving on the planning committee for the Twin Oaks 50th anniversary celebration in 2017. I also serve as one of the Twin Oaks delegates to the Federation of Egalitarian Communities.On a more personal level, I'm an amateur musician and DJ and love organizing all manner of events, from parties to conferences. Personal growth and healthy interpersonal relationships are another focus of my life. I'm the father of a teenager. My life is about bringing people together to make the world a better place for everyone.
