- How my leadership has changed as a result of OTV
The network and support that has been established has made me realize that I am not in this journey alone. When I step up as a leader to advocate for equity and justice I know that I have a group of supporters backing me up and doing similar work in other areas of our community. OTV has provided a space to be reflective and insightful while pushing me to grow into the leader that I want to be.
- Where I’ve come from and where I expect to be in the next 3-5 years
Wow now there's a real question.
I come from an amazing family, a small town, a loving community. I have a BA in Outdoor Recreation and have spent the last 5 years of my career working in the wilderness.In 2007 I graduated with an MA in education focusing on language, culture and power. In the future I plan to continue advocating for social justice, work in the non-profit/education sector, continue my travels, start a family, and continue to live with enthusiasm and tenacity.
