How did you learn about Art of Hosting (please add the date and place) and what attracted you to it?
I heard about the Art of Hosting when reading Walk Out Walk On. What attracted me to it? Everything. I love the thought of helping people or groups talk about challenges, issues, problems in a unique way. Hearing and really listening to other points of view. Embracing differences.
Tell us about your experience with Art of Hosting as part of your life and work. What would you say your competence in it is? (new, starting practitioner, experienced practitioner, steward)
Totally new. I worked in a private elementary school for 11 years, it was my first job out of college, in the Development Office. I love, and am good at, connecting with people and getting them to talk. (I was REALLY good at getting volunteers because of my skill:))
What is the primary field/topic/focus in your hosting work?
Non-Profit Organizations. I'm most familiar with education, but am open to learning about others.
Are there interests/passions that you'd like to share?
I love the thought of partnering with organizations that could use additional help. It is important to me to feel good about my work and to know that what I am doing is making a difference.
