Other
things
I
have been working as a communications consultant now
for 12 years. My last full-time work was with the David
Suzuki Foundation where I helped build communications
infrastructure, and which led to my present work with
all these great environmental organizations listed above.
In
the ten years before that I worked in a variety of positions
in the private and non-profit sectors, and government,
mostly in management positions. I've owned businesses
and managed a staff of over 225 people at one point.
I've
spent several years travelling and working/volunteering
in other countries, including extended trips to India, Latin America, two years in Costa Rica, and among the most meaningful experiences
was coffee-picking in Sandinista Nicaragua and escorting
threatened human rights workers in Guatemala with Peace
Brigades International.
To
my present customers - thanks for letting me be a part
of your good work. And to potential customers - hoping
I can be of service.
I recently decided to return to university to complete another degree and try my hand at more full-time writing.
