In my own words

Zrenda

I am your connector, a problem-solver and a cheerleader.

I love the challenge of bringing people together and creating an environment where they can grow, learn and thrive. I am passionate about helping community members achieve their goals--and I know that there's no better way to do this than by being present and engaged in the community myself.
