I've been very lucky - I've been around smart and passionate people..people who are looking to reimagine what is possible when Education, Peer support, and story meet.

I hope to lend my voice to a collaborative Team culture that enables innovation & breakthrough ideas while representing the diverse people who make-up Portland and the State of Oregon.

In a world defined by rapid-fire seismic shifts in the way people live and the tools at their disposal, I believe that a culture that celebrates transformation – and the power of human potential to shape it – is an optimal breeding ground for reforms and progress.

And one more thing...I truly believe that when you connect the right mix of minds and passions and give them a place to change the world, THEY WILL.
