I grew up in Orlando, FL or "The City Beautiful" as people like to call it. Before coming to Idealist, I spent my days playing trombone in symphony orchestras, punk, ska, and hip-hop bands, and with the Tubafours at Walt Disney World. At Idealist, I keep the books well groomed and oversee all aspects of the organization's financials. Outside the office you can find me playing the occasional 'bone gig, spending time with my lovely family, or perfecting the art of smoking meat in the backyard.
