ABOUT

Me picture.jpeg

This site is an exploration of my Masters candidacy in Organizational Leadership. It offers specific data, evidence, artifacts and projects encouraged by my Organizational Leadership program studies. It is a way to understand how this program has affected my life and a retrospective of the work I've completed; work that I intend to continue. 

 

This program has forever influenced my professional and personal life, therefore you will see a reflection of both on this site. It is a visual exploration that weaves in organizational leadership themes and concepts in brief summaries, through language, art and design.

 

You will see nature, symbolic of exploration and deeper connection to the Earth and vegetables, representing my work in agriculture.  As a land steward committed to sustainable agriculture practices, I am inspired by the magic that seeds bring to our lives and experiential learning. 

​

This program has encouraged my process of self-identification. Whereas before I struggled to describe myself, I now identify as the following:​

  • A Professional

  • Change Agent

  • Continuous Improver

  • Authentic Leader

  • Mountain Biker

  • Athlete

  • Alpine Skier

  • Homesteader

Personal Vision Statement

I hope to bring energy, optimism and creativity to organizational change. I want to lift people up in their positions, steward food justice through receptivity and speak from my heart.

Take a look at my resumes here or via the buttons below. Reach out with any inquiries, proposals or future projects here.

embracing vs. avoidance

Throughout this program, this dichotomy (the tension of opposites) has come up several times. Whether through weathering a pandemic, organizational change, wrestling with our own mental models, and eventually coming to terms with who and where we are.

​

This concept seems to emulate the Ignatian journey, and one that is ubiquitous in our lives. A lot of what I encounter personally is on what others think and project about my life and circumstances. Challenge after challenge, aren't we at more peace when we are more concerned with our own choices than the thoughts of others?

​

One of my major takeaways from my studies in Organizational Leadership is the ability to embrace rather than avoid: a challenge, a conversation, a change, an awareness, an identity. It may sound simple, but bring attention to inner thoughts and feelings and one may find more resistance than expected.
