"The focus on the individual versus the society as a whole has been fostered far too long. I believe for change to occur on a societal level, like minded individuals need to come together to ensure their voice is heard in regard to a more global level of compassion. Understanding that we are all one in the world and that ignoring problems doesn't make them any less real is paramount to a cultural shift in the United States. Let us let go of materialism and living in our self created bubbles and reach out to our brothers and sisters across the street and around the globe."

Description:

After 15 years in for-profit ventures, I have shifted my focus to non-profit interest. I was inspired when I learned there are over 500,000 children in the US in foster care. It is now my passion to make a positive impact on their lives. I am specifically interested in emancipating foster youth and ensuring proper support as these youth are sent out on their own.
