Tagline | Sustainability, Policy and Communications professional providing consultative and collaborative leadership, organizing, learning, development, media, policy and applied research for campaigns, communities and organizations. |
Impact | I’ve been an intersectional organizer since the last century, from anti-agism, civil rights and environmental work through today’s community based climate and sustainability campaigns and the broader efforts of building power using a variety of approaches for municipalist, media activist, community design and participatory action. I’ve also had a direct hand in local nd State political races and ballot access in addition to leadership roles in many more advocacy campaigns. Please take a look at my resume for some detail. I’ll be adding to this, but in the meantime Im glad to connect here or talk with you directly to explore ways I might contribute to your work |
Mission | I am available for this last end of cycle push in remote, hybrid or field work as needed. I suppose an ideal contribution would combine GOTV with intersectional issues campaigns. I am particularly interested in opportunities to contribute to bridging from here to the policy and practice work of the next administration and local elected leaders and NGO’s. I enjoy and am good at participatory narrative as well as hybrid, field and studio broadcast and podcast style public affairs media production. I have also run media production in the context of community and campaign messaging to win. These days, narrative that honors But I’ve run and worked on enough campaigns that I understand the key thing now is flexibility to meet the need for winning where it matters. How can I help? Please note that I grew up in and have family and lived experience in swing states, including Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Arizona. I’ve also lived and worked in much of the US and abroad in diverse urban, rural and suburban settings, often as an organizer well grounded in cross -cultural communication.  I mention this because it may matter, particularly with independent or undecided voters of like appearance and experience: I have lived experience as an outwardly cis white man comfortable communicating across many cultures and identities both professionally, in community health and other settings, and as neighborhood and community organizer more broadly.
