How did you arrive in the land of nonprofits?
While working in public accounting, the majority of my clients were nonprofits. After 3 busy seasons, it was an easy decision to make the switch to working for a nonprofit.
Your favorite "geeky" part of the job?
Spreadsheets! They are the best thing ever.
Where can you most likely be found on a Saturday morning? Saturday night?
Saturday morning – Sleeping after staying up late to finish a book. Saturday night – Bingeing a show on Netflix.
Would you rather travel into the past or the future?
The past. I would like to see some of the family events I have heard so much about: Fourth of July cookouts, state football games, family trips.
Guacamole or salsa?
Salsa! No slimy green stuff.
Peanut butter: creamy or crunchy?
Creamy
Imo's pizza: friend or foe?
Friend
Would you rather have 100 duck-sized elephants or 1 elephant-sized duck?
I’m going to go with the 100 duck-sized elephants. Elephants seem to be more friendly than ducks. Plus, I could share them with my friends and family.
Would you rather be able to fly or be able to turn invisible?
Fly
Would you rather travel the world for a year on a shoestring budget or stay in only one country for a year but live in luxury?
Stay in one country with all my creature comforts.
