Health
Mercy Ships
Mercy Ships’ state-of-the-art floating hospitals bring hope and healing to the forgotten poor. I am privileged to serve at this amazing organization, providing interim leadership, driving transformation initiatives, and planning technology and operational improvements to the hospital ships.
Food
Feed My Starving Children
Feed My Starving Children is a non-profit Christian organization committed to feeding God’s children hungry in body and spirit. In addition to volunteering with food packing activities, I have had the privilege of serving in the IT Advisory Board of this outstanding organization.
Water
Water Project – Santa Cruz, Honduras
One of the most inspiring projects I have worked on was bringing fresh water to a village in the Santa Cruz mountains in Honduras that was impacted by hurricane Mitch, devastating the local community. Fresh water was only available miles away.
Through a project with the Westwood Community Church in Chanhassen, MN, and in collaboration with a local church in Honduras, I worked with a group of volunteers and provided project management support to ship pipes from Minnesota to the local community in order to build a conduit of fresh water from the Santa Cruz mountains to the local village.
Education
Beta Institute of Technology (BIT)
BIT was a non-profit organization in San Diego that provided education for the underprivileged to improve life skills and technical abilities. I have had the honor of partnering with BIT, using Apple’s Swift Playgrounds platform to teach emancipated foster youth the foundational principles of coding, critical thinking and analytical skills.
