Top favorite podcast:
“On Being with Krista Tippet” – especially anytime a poet, philosopher, psychologist, or social justice advocate is on (my favs are Nikki Giavonni, Marie Howe, and Ruby Sales).
What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working? I love writing and developing visual creative using Film and Photography. You can also usually find me binge-watching Hulu and Netflix or hanging out with my family of gamers (mainly the Super Mario Bros collections). I also love to travel to experience different cultures through food, art, and community volunteering. I’ve only got 2 more continents to visit!
What drives you to do this work? My desire to grow my data storytelling skillset to better serve communities of my interests!
