Community Building
fostering connections
I believe in the power of communities. Whether gathered by purpose, geography, interest, or circumstance communities play a critical part role in the social infrastructure that supports our growth, health and development as a society. I believe that sourcing the collective wisdom of communities paves the path towards innovative ideas and actionable solutions for the problems of our day. In my community work, I aim for inclusivity and belonging, and foster symbiotic relationships between people and networks enabling humans to reach their full potential. Sourcing solutions from the community, for the community, we are stronger together.
