I am passionate about personnel capacity building; project management; communication and networking; task management; and equity-focused program development and implementation.
I believe in rural economic development and the ability to provide opportunities for rural communities to be thriving, viable places for people to live and work.

Application of Skills
I have dynamic work experience that crosscuts leadership in both information technology as well as training and development.
I have led a team through procurement and installment of new hardware and software. I have also worked on a planning committee through the configuration and design of building infrastructure as the IT designee.
My experience is deep in developing training structures and models, as well as capacity building and implementation of these training and development efforts.
In all roles, my passion is identifying and elevating capacity within the organization to lead these processes. The combination of “input” and “arranger” in a leader is someone wanting to listen to staff, clients, or partners and then position them to be as successful as possible.
