I am a community organizer. I am the lead AmeriCorps facilitator of the Sustainable Communities Initiative in the Edison and Vine Neighborhoods of Kalamazoo, Michigan.

I am a geographer. My discipline is Urban & Regional Planning. I study Landscape Ecology, as well, and use ArcGIS to solve spatial problems.

I am a writer. My concentration is on the use of rhetoric in traditional and digital publication. Digital Publication is reliant on graphic design, so I use Wordpress, Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and write HTLM to create unique compositions.
