Favorite Quote
"Give me the supreme power of LOVE. . . this is my prayer-- the confidence that belongs to life in death, victory in defeat, to the power hidden in frailest beauty, to that dignity in pain which accepts hurt, but disdains to return to it." Rabindranath Tagore
Favorite Book(s) or Podcast(s)?
"The Waves", Virginia Wolfe, "The Monkey Wrench Gang", Edward Abbey, "A Way of Working: The Spiritual Dimension of Craft" Edited by D.M Dooling
What do you do at Verner?
I raise funds to support early learning for children and families and to build capacity for the amazing work of early educators.
What are your credentials/past experiences, for working in your position?
I've been working in philanthropy, marketing, and outreach since 2004.
What do you like about working at Verner?
The work of early educators supporting children's development is like quantum physics-- the understanding and appreciation of the field is tied to our constantly developing knowledge of ourselves and our understanding of how we can support children as they develop their own sense and understanding of themselves.
What do you enjoy doing when you are not working?
I cook a lot, feeding my two boys (7 and 14) and I like to mudlark, or beach comb, for treasures.
