"Draw the art you want to see, start the business you want to run, play the music you want to hear, write the books you want to read, build the products you want to use - do the work you want to see done."
- Austin Kleon, author of "Steal Like An Artist"
Kleon's quote accurately describes me - I like to do things.
In my former life as a public relations professional, I did a lot things: media relations, promotion/publicity, social media, content creation, event coordination, sponsorship facilitation, community relations and communication strategy.
Right now, I cook. I love food and am nurturing a newfound obsession with foraging. I'm consistently becoming more aware of how vital and simple a good, hearty and healthy meal can be. It's a privilege, but it shouldn't be.
Now back to the quote: I've always loved it because it also reflects my sense of ownership and ability to learn & integrate new concepts quickly. Add in an effervescent personality that allows me to confidently face challenges head-on and manoeuvre tactfully through obstacles and you've got one unstoppable broad.
I've currently found a home at FoodShare as a Good Food Cafe Facilitator (Find out more about the great work we do by clicking on the "Support my charity" spotlight), but I'm always on the lookout for opportunities to learn and grow, so don't be afraid to say, "Hi!" on Twitter, Pinterest or by e-mail.
