Why have you chosen to be on the board?
I believe that effective social change requires relationships based on a shared vision, with space for shared leadership. I’ve been organizing for the past 15 years and bring to the table a perspective rooted in my experience across different movements: on environmental issues, with the labor movement, as a faith-based organizer, on college campuses, and on elections. I’ve worked at the regional, state and national level, and in both rural and urban communities. I’m a passionate fundraiser with over five years of experience at the grassroots membership-level, through online platforms, and with major donors.
