Nonprofit administrator, strategic communications and marketing leader, grant writer, speechwriter, convener, dog chaser, so-so bird photographer

I’ve been a university administrator and chief marketing officer; a newspaper reporter, columnist and editor; a nonprofit director; a public television host and producer; a ski bum; a wine steward; and a rhythm guitar and keyboard player in a rock band (listed in declining order of financial reward).

I hold degrees in anthropology and journalism from the University of California at Santa Barbara and New York University.
