Membro desde 2009
Both an optimist and a cynic. Work in education. Fascinated by collective human potential and organizational governance (and believe there's a multitude of other ways to distribute power in groups than the top down triangle model). Love delving into complexity and nuance - the world is fascinating - and it seems the more I learn the less I know! Facilitator and Governance Guide/Trainer. Former Social Studies/History Teacher. Gardener. Radical Historian. Rambler (both in thought and travel). Book Lover. Co-op Geek. Love high-fives, yummy food, dancing, a delicious cocktail, a beautiful and invigorating hike and moments of awe.

Uma Coisa Incrível Que Já Fiz
Visited the zapastistas when I was 20yo and met with their juntas de buen gobierno...forever shifting my views on what's possible in community, democracy and more.
Ensinar, Aprender, Compartilhar
Let's Share! Would love to hear/see/witness what you are passionate about. Ask me about sociocracy and consent decision making :)
O Que Posso Oferecer aos Hosts
Stories, smiles and laughter.
Meus Interesses
Figuring it out as I go. Facilitation. Etymology (history of words!). Stories. Rivers. Mountains. Beaches. Good food + drink. Dungeons and dragons. Laughter with friends. Cooking. Hiking. Gardening. Basketball + soccer/futbol. Connective moments in community and showing up for my family. Love watching bugs in the garden....witnessing young people have aha! moments....diving into the murky depths of the past (personal, family, collective) as a way to move towards justice and healing (some say history repeats itself but does it have to??)...and I'm fascinated by cooperatives and their potential for humans (consent based decision-making for the win...let's build a world grounded in human sovereignty, dignity and discernment)
