Welcome!

“Everything we do is an opportunity to translate our values into action.” Smiling Heart

Areas of Focus

Champion and make gender equity a priority.
Foster and support cooperative and sharing culture.
Practice, teach and empower Tech for Good.
Convene to build community, share resources and ideas.
Help others struggle less and experience a more fulfilling life.
Create possibility, stimulate growth, fun and play.

Community Organizer

I enjoy convening and creating possibilities. I co-organize NTEN Oakland, CiviCRM, Cohousing and Foundation for Intentional Community (FIC) events. NTEN Oakland provides free, friendly events for nonprofit staffers to learn about technology and processes. CiviCRM is the the most robust and best equipped open source CRM for specifically for nonprofits. Cohousing is an intentional community of private homes clustered around shared space. FIC is my beloved workplace whose mission it is to support and promote the development of intentional communities as pathways towards a more sustainable and just world.

Information Technology | Nonprofit Consultant

I build Web sites with WordPress, its toolset ecosystem and CiviCRM when needed. Together we will identify what products and services are needed to get the project up and running, and maintained. I have gotten familiar with the web hosting ecosystem and informed by your values will help you make appropriate decisions.

I enjoy helping nonprofit leaders and organizations clarify their vision, mission and membership. Together we can also identify technology and communications tools to support clarified goals. The journey could also include identifying mechanisms to raise money, nurture donors and keep everyone in touch with outcomes.

One-on One-Coach

I am a Certified Professional Co-active Coach (CPCC) who works one-on-one with individuals who are ready to play (or are already playing) a bigger game – whatever that is for you. I host and co-design with you conversations which help you learn and grow through your life’s many transitions. I most enjoy working with community seekers and residents, nonprofit technology consultants and leaders who want to make this planet a better place for others.

Imagine awakening your inner leader, overcoming challenges, achieving more (or less), increasing your impact, feeling more joy, being your best self and surprised more often.

Making progress toward achieving gender parity

“Gender parity at the United Nations is an urgent need – and a personal priority. It is a moral duty and an operational necessity.

The meaningful inclusion of women in decision-making increases effectiveness and productivity, brings new perspectives and solutions to the table, unlocks greater resources and strengthens efforts across all the three pillars of our work. ”

–  Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres
