Values/Strengths: 

Individualization – I enjoy getting to know folks individually and seeing how each of our strengths contribute to creating a strong team. I love working with people to help them reach their objectives. 

Context – I believe that our experiences and the paths we’ve taken shape our present and future. I find it helpful to reflect on past events and allow it to inform our way forward. I enjoy learning how we got here.  

Connectedness – I see the linkages that exist all around us. I build connections and facilitate dialogue between people, recognizing what folks have in common while appreciating everyone’s uniqueness. 

Learner – I am always open to new information and am excited to acquire knowledge and skills. This also comes into play as I recognize that we benefit from sharing our knowledge, skills, experiences, and wisdom with others. 

Arranger – I enjoy figuring out how all the various puzzle pieces of our life and work fit together. To me, it’s important to find ways that resources can be arranged and shared to benefit us.
