Board Member, 2015-2022
I served as an apprentice with Arizona Humanities through The Manifesto Project . The Manifesto Project is a statewide organization committed to engaging, developing, and retaining Arizona’s young professionals by providing high-quality leadership development opportunities. As a Board Apprentice in class #1, I served a one-year term on the Board of Arizona Humanities, in a non-voting, but highly engaged shadow role. My duties, responsibilities, and accomplishments during my term of service consisted of raising awareness of the Humanities in Arizona through advocacy, fundraising, and event support. At the close of my apprenticeship, I applied for full membership and subsequently served as a Board Member with the organization. I served on the Finance, Advocacy, and Volunteer Committees and was elected to the Executive Board position of Secretary in 2019, where I continued to serve until the completion of my tenure in 2022. I supported the organization through its transition to Microsoft Office 365 and provided training and best practices for collaboration on the new platform. I received the Outstanding Supporter award in 2023.
