I love cities because they bring people together, build tolerance, and make things happen, especially places like Minneapolis. I visit France for culture and renewal.

For everyone to have a smart, committed mentor to help them achieve their passion, wherever they are in their career and life. I want us to accelerate change so we can solve many of the world's toughest challenges faster — and better, so we can all lead happier lives!

I am the founder of MentorPlanet.com, matching change-agents, innovators and social entrepreneurs with experienced professionals who volunteer their time to a 12-month, in-depth mentoring relationship. A former strategic marketing consultant, I switched careers to devote my efforts to the nonprofit and social enterprise area. For the past 10 years, I have focused on arts, jobs programs, mental health, and economic development in the US (and recently France).
