Occupation: Executive Director, Third Place Technologies (a community technology non-profit organization)
Statement:

I have fallen in love with Skykomish since joining the community several years ago.   As of May 2017, I was appointed to a position on the Town Council, and seek your support to continue in that role, representing your interests and supporting the town’s wellbeing.

 

Professionally I am a technologist, the Executive Director of Third Place Technologies, a non-profit that develops community technologies. I am also an artist, a painter and creative technologist. More importantly, I have extensive experience in community organizing, including recently helping with Sky Art Week, organizing Electric Sky, and hosting the Luminous Garden at the Maloney Store.

 

I believe the greatest challenge for Skykomish is managing its growth in a way that retains the town’s authenticity, respects the concerns of its residents, and sustains its environmental integrity.  I seek to help the community articulate its vision for the future, and achieve its collective goals.
