About
I am white, trans, a midwesterner, a singer of songs, an ethnic Jew, a practicing Buddhist. I am an organizer, a facilitator, a mediator, a trainer, a coach. I have spent my adult life working for social change in my community and as a nonprofit leader.
I believe in the capacity of organizations, communities, and teams to confront the complex challenges of our era and chart a new course together. I know how daunting this can feel as we face so many overlapping crises. And yet I believe we must. What we face today demands the sort of wisdom and innovation that's available only in our collective genius. The sort that emerges from engaging and valuing the diversity of our experiences, histories and perspectives. This is the work I do. Facilitating the conditions to say what needs to be said, listen to what needs to be heard, find one another across our differences and illuminate the path ahead.
