Me.
I love creating partnerships especially within communities, I discovered this character trait 20 years ago while I was working on a production for a community organization and needed items that we could not afford. So I began bartering and trading and from there I saw how I could partner others up to achieve the same outcome.
I truly enjoy sales and communications and have had good careers as an account executive, interior designer, and event planner. You have to be able to listen to people to help them. Community Advocacy is my true passion, helping to build economically strong, environmentally safe, and emotionally thriving communities gets my motor running. I completed my Bachelor’s of Science in Entertainment Business at Full Sail University in 2015 and immediately figured how to use my newly acquired skills to identify great talents in my community. My team members and I began hosting dinner parties for candidates running for city council and we produced the 2017 Mayoral, City Council, and Atlanta Public School, forums so that our community could ask questions and get responses from the very people who want to represent us.
I also began producing my community’s annual festival the Adams Park Cultural Arts Festival, APCAFEST in 2011, along with my neighbors and that is how I met so many of the residents, business owners, entrepreneurs, stakeholders, school district representatives, city council members, and other organizations throughout my community and city which left a lot of people to create truly great partnerships with and long-lasting friendships. I served on the Neighborhood Planning Unit, NPU-R for 3 years which is a city ran organization that is set up to facilitate citizenry and participation in the affairs of city government by drawing on its representation from the local neighborhoods and elsewhere and to advise the City Administration, City Council and others on citywide issues, goals, and objectives relative to Atlanta, Atlanta NPU’s. I learned large organizations are less viable, small groups with followers and participants who drop in to work on their particular part of a community project work best, these days.
