What are you up to?

I’ve recently decided that what I want to be when I grow up is a COO of a medium to large company and am working on expanding my skill set to fully round out my skill set and experience to achieve that goal. In addition, I’m honored to be a part of the 2018 Leadership Portland cohort, sponsored by the Portland Business Alliance. It’s essentially a Oregon/Portland civics class for professionals with the goal of educating private sector leaders on public sector issues. It’s very eye-opening and I’m learning a lot about our region.

On the personal side, I’m waiting for snowboard season to start so I can get to the mountain as much as possible. Bring on the snow!

Why Portland?

I’ve been in Portland for 11 years after spending 7 years in Los Angeles. I live in Beaumont Village and have lots of shops and restaurants to explore as development on NE Fremont is in high gear. Bang Bang is amazing. Many long time Portland residents will bemoan the growth and change of our city. I welcome the new and encourage others to get excited about how our city is expanding, changing, growing, and serving it’s citizens, new and old.

One of my favorite summer time activities is running in Forest Park. It’s a treasure that I just recently started exploring in earnest.
