Dreamer. Storyteller. Geek.

I am a non-profit storyteller helping nonprofits use data to tell the stories of empowerment, compassion, inspiration, and change. I'm an advocate committed to building the capacity of nonprofit organizations through technology. I bring a diverse range of approaches to the work of nonprofit technology, drawing on the latest nonprofit educational models, my background in human services, and people and data management. I help align vision with resources that serve the nonprofit sector. I help nonprofits tell their stories better. "Stories are just data with a soul." (Brene Brown)

I have spent the past 17 years heavily involved in the nonprofit community, helping found two nonprofit organizations, currently serving on the board of The Nourish Collective, and as a member of the North Richland Hills Community Emergency Response Team. I am currently pursuing my Masters degree.

Random Details and Favorites:
I love asking questions that have no answer, igniting passion, wearing flip flops, hula hooping, and crocheting. My children, coffee, trees, and homemade peach ice cream rock my world. The List (of the bucket variety) includes in no particular order: Burning Man, TED, learning to make the perfect mojito, and attending a holy festival of each of the world's major religions. My passions include helping people find their voice, art in public spaces, community building, and learning. Tell me your story.
