An Attitude Of Gratitude

I live an intentional life grounded in the philosophy and practice of seva – compassionate service that benefits the collective over the individual – the community over self. Seva is mindfulness, service, and selfless care for others. I learned about seva as a young adult during a solo trip to India and Nepal. My experiences there expanded my worldview in unexpected ways and inspired me to be actively engaged in acts of service that help improve the human condition. To that end, I have charted a career path and fostered a lifestyle that align with service and philanthropy.

For 17+ years I have been actively engaged in the business of fundraising and development. I have assisted numerous nonprofits to raise millions of dollars in support of their missions to improve the conditions of daily life, uplift and empower the marginalized and underserved, conserve and protect wilderness and public lands, and otherwise contribute to the greater good. Being able to help create this magnitude of impact is the result of years of experience and a personal ethos that service is an act of love.
