Civic and non-profit support is a lifelong calling. I have always been steeped in the importance of supporting education, equity and access. My mother was a an anti-apartheid activist and city councillor in South Africa, and later a music educator. I place value on being an ethical, collaborative and mission focused trustee.
Educational and cultural competency, strategic decision making, governance (simply through experience and continued development), and relationship building are areas of strength.
Committees :
HOS search committee (included writing position statement)
HOS evaluation and support (HSEC)

Governance/COT Committee
Founding trustee
I had a hand in everything everything from mission development, board development, real estate search and negotiation, admissions, staff hires, fundraising and - even administration in the first year.
Starting a school entailed 2 years of intensive research and consulting within the educational and non-profit sectors.
Independent and for hire. Some have aired on A&E, Discovery, Scottish Television, Channel 4 UK.
Documentary and narrative television series and independent films. Much less for the past 8 years, but still dabble occasionally, mostly for non-profit or personal projects.
