I am a quick learner, adaptable, and motivated. I enjoy building relationships and connecting with people on the level of true involvement in their lives and/or projects.

I am currently a board member and event coordinator for the Matthew Axelson Foundation, where I organize and run a golf tournament with over 140 participants plus over 40 active and retired Navy SEALs who travel to our area for this annual event.

I helped the Washoe County Child Advocacy Center transfer, organize, and scrub their extensive donor database, and then to raise over $200,000 in their first annual Biggest Little Boardwalk Event.
