CURRENTLY PARTICIPATING…
I am committed to championing the aspirations of Digital Handshake Members.
We support the natural curiosity of children with opportunities for them to explore creativity, meet entrepreneurs and make things. Learn more.
For me, ownership includes participating in our communities. I encourage Luby’s team members to find their own style, but also make it fun. Hospitality is contagious!
I joined the board of directors in 2022, assigned to co-develop the Youth Arts Council. In 2024 I created the Technology Committee to expand our reach beyond the museum walls and created a business board seat, inviting leaders to participate in a meaningful way.
The Mural of America project
In celebration of 250 years of America I’m supporting Digital Handshake member, Stephanie Welsh, as her team captures, Seminole Canyon in South Texas.

Reading shaped my world and expanded my imagination. Bernie's Book Bank, KFFL and Charming Studios came together to share 50,000 books with Chicago students.

Chicago Public Schools
As a student I struggled to learn traditionally. My perspective would help me create visuals around the need for alternative learning. I specialize in ideas and creation for fundraising.

My camera has been a useful tool. Capturing the magic of emotion is the gift that I can contribute effortlessly.
This lens would help me view the simple ways I could bring attention to the needs around me.

A privilege to support Digital Handshake member, Beth Swanson, with Rostrum 312.
