Thinking about what drives me….

I am intuitive

I am at home in Latin America

I am very aware of the world and its issues:  politics, economy, geography, travel

I am a networker—a connector of people

My people skills include:

• Listening
• Affirming goals and visions of others, helping them turn those into effective action.
• Able to say: “I am on your side.”
• Encourager.  I take Barnabas’ ministry as my model.

I am usually workin on multiple projects and to think and plan strategically about several at the same time.

I get involved in visions before they turn into projects (i.e., before they become concrete), and I can work on them until they turn into proposals.

I have good insight into political and administrative relationships, combining savvy with a definite impatience for getting through to resolution.

Change is a big part of who I am and the way I live.  I am adaptable.  I want to change the world.  I am idealistic and process oriented.

I am comfortable among the very poor and I have not found it difficult to slip in an out of politically tense situations.

I grow by connecting.  Latin American Christians have changed my life.
