My Mission

My life goal is to help increase the resilience of individuals, communities, and organizations in the face of a rapidly changing world. My combined experience in education in urban planning and finance allows me to advance my life mission in a significant way.

The Value I Add

Everyone has a unique flavor they add to the pot. I love diving into the details and better understanding any subject in which I am conducting research. Thanks to my planning background, I know the elements of a good plan, and enjoy developing them.
