About me: I am an instigator. Seriously, I’m not for the weak of heart. I look closely and work intensely with clients who are truly ready to make something happen. In over 10 years of working with hundreds of clients, I have come up with tools and conceptual approaches that help self-starters become self-finishers. My work is heavily based in the principles of Community Psychology, including, but not limited to:
* we are all motivated;
* my clients are the experts; and
* we may have resources at hand to solve our own problems.
I really like the idea that I am a facilitator of YOUR goodness and competence.
I have been a microsurgery tech, an event planner, survived working in corporate America and am proud to have earned a Master’s degree from Antioch University and an undergrad degree from Brown.
I love giving talks and workshops, grooming the next generation of community psychologists, and schooling non-academics on how to move projects forward with grace and style.
My passion of passions is helping people make and maintain the connections (to ideas, resources and other humans) that they need to grow themselves and their businesses.
Who I'd like to meet: articulate humans making their art with aplomb

You'll have to explain what that means - I know someone else with the same title and have always wondered.
Also - look up the artist Tanekeya Word - I'm designing the layout and cover for her book of poetry. She hasn't announced her book yet, but check out her art! I'm getting a copy of Sol Lady: Sunrise in exchange for the design work - I LOVE barter!!!
