About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Leveraging data to build a better humanitarian organization.

ABOUT ME

I love meeting people and learning about their experiences.
Volunteer work is important to me, particularly disaster relief and other emergency medical work. Currently employed remotely with a humanitarian organization.

PHILOSOPHY

Love your neighbor; we're each carving out our little part of the human experience and I think we all need each other to share in it.
I'm very passionate about life, and I shape my views as I live.

Interests

Particularly interested in community health, i.e. health delivery in underserved populations. Working to focus on vulnerable populations in the disaster/humanitarian environment.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all types of music (truly), but especially 90's rock, alt rock, pop punk, like Weezer, blink-182, Cake, Goo Goo Dolls and also americana/folk/bluegrass (and maybe some “new-grass”). Maggie Belle from New Orleans, is my new favorite find.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I’ve done lately is work for the Park Service in the Grand Canyon. Getting paid to backpack and rescue folks is an opportunity I never expected to have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can hold a conversation on most topics, some better than others and I like discussing everything and learning about your place in the world. I can be as involved or as invisible as you are comfortable with or would like, and I would love the opportunity to take you out for a drink/coffee/pizza/etc as a minimum token of my appreciation.
