As a managing partner of a creative agency, I consider strong communication and organizational skills to be mandatory. I also appreciate the importance of respect, patience, and empathy when mobilizing multiple people or groups towards a common goal.

My son’s preschool was a co-op. During his two years there, parents had to work together with teachers to organize special events and projects.

Globally, I was a part of a select group of artists that traveled to Mae Sot, Thailand in 2011 to teach art to Burmese refugee children. Locally, I donate creative services to non-profit organizations that provide cultural and creative arts youth education.

This Fall I begin my 3rd year homeschooling via Inspire Charter. I love the opportunites this homeschooling adventure has presented my son. He is able to grow and evolve in so many ways that would not be possible via a traditional school. I want to be involved in any way possible to help create a sense of Community.
