My Mission

“My mission is to live a sustainable life with kindness and compassion toward myself, my peers, and our planet. To be present in every moment with an inquisitive mind open to growth and development. I recognize that I have benefited from racial, gender, and socioeconomic privileges, which I use to advocate for those who have not. I want others to look upon my life and see that I did my best to live with integrity as an example from which they may draw inspiration to do the same. When I fail to uphold these intentions, I welcome constructive feedback.”

My Purpose

"Because doing what I can to move our culture to a more equitable and egalitarian society for all is most important to me, I want to use my passion for building human connections in and between our differing communities to find creative solutions to difficult-to-solve societal challenges, so I can have a positive impact on the most vulnerable and often-maligned citizens of our shared planet."
