Summary

I am aspiring difference maker with ambitions to step in to the non profit arena. So far I have made a career in Technology Project Management & Consulting. I have over 5 years of experience leading teams, having hard conversations & making sure my projects are profitable along the way; however, my true passions lie in working towards humanitarian efforts. Through college I made a name for myself within UGA's philanthropic communities, and I also spent many week's living in Nicaragua working alongside Amigo's for Christ. It is my hope that this opportunity with CARE can alow me to pivot back towards what I desire to do with the rest of my life.
