She is currently an entrepreneurial marketing consultant and advisor, living abroad in Costa Rica. "I joined Bpeace because I firmly believe in their mission.

@Bpeace:  Working with Bpeace program team to integrate new Social Profitability focus into our Fast Runner programs
 
 
" I joined Bpeace because I believe in the sustainable power of building a local community and supporting those making a difference. I am excited to share my background in social impact and corporate responsibility with new and growing businesses, and to meet a new community of influencers across the globe."
New York, NY
Digital Integration Manager,  Accenture 
 
 
@Bpeace:  Researching skill-based volunteer opportunities at Accenture 
 


" I joined Bpeace because I do want to give back to others by sharing my experiences and knowledge, but also to listen and learn from entrepreneurs coming from different cultural backgrounds. I think contributing to Bpeace is a fantastic way--apart from business-related input--to add hope and stability in regions that struggle, and make people in those regions feel that others do care."
Columbia, SC
President, Clemson Road Creative
 
 
 
 
@Bpeace:  Researching CRM systems to help manage Fast Runner programs


" I joined Bpeace because my dissertation research was based on my belief that if we employ people, they won't become terrorists. Research indicates that's entirely true. Imagine how glad I was to find an organization working to employ people by building businesses. It's like an entrepreneurial war on terror--except all super-peaceful! I'm so glad to be even a small part of such important work. "
Ridgewood, NY
Director of Marketing - Americas, TRANSFAST
  
 
 
@Bpeace:  Judging applications as part of our
recruiting efforts in El Salvador 


" I joined Bpeace because we share the same belief: The path to peace is lined with jobs. And I'm happy that I have the chance to give something back, sharing my industry knowledge and experience with others in order to make a positive difference. I'm sure this will be fun, interesting and challenging. "
