It all started when…
I attended 6 elementary schools in 4 states before I hit middle school. From an early age I learned that there are multiple ways to talk, think, dress, and do things “right”. My multi-variate life has made me a synthesizer, a problem solver, able to work through organizational layers to structure, influence and evolve, even when the path is ambiguous.
