I contribute on a variety of fronts from strategic to operational:

• I co-founded Dance Labs , facilitated documentation of our foundational program, extended the idea to Thailand (Dance Chalat) which led to the idea of a Dance Labs Foundation
• I am core organizer of the Bay Area micro Fusion community (BAmF)
  • I help evaluate instuctors and DJs we hire in support of our monthly and annual events
  • we form strategic alliances with organizers in the fusion community (including local micro fusion communities around the world)
  • in the face of the pandemic, I volunteered to produce online social events as a place for community members to show up and not feel isolated
• I assisted Underbelly and help create community while maintaining and growing my personal practice (slow contact, inquiry-based)
• I am a cultural liaison and dance ambassador for a wide spectrum of dance cultures, methods, practices, and processes
• I volunteer to do the R&D necessarily to build knowledge base for the conscious dance community that is inclusive and diverse that represents our collective intelligence and wisdom #technology
• I stand for dance as a healthy habit, the first step anyone can take to keep movement alive in their life (Design for Dance) #behavior #design
• I care about the growth of communities and provide tools to help structure established communities ready for growth and development and to bring things to the next level #design
