Where Is My Guru
A New York-based, worldly-wise for-profit and not-for-profit executive with more than fifteen years of experience in fundraising, event planning, publicity, and organizational management, I’m an entrepreneur leading my own consulting company and co-host and partner of the live weekly online radio show, Where Is My Guru (www.whereismyguru.com), a social media hub dedicated to advancing the melioration of individuals, communities, and the environment by bringing mindful media to the masses. Practicing yoga since 1995 and still struggling to touch my toes, service-- or seva in Sanskrit--has long been a core element of my career and personal drive. Having switched my major from Journalism to receive a B.A. in English with a Writing Concentration, being “that kid” who forsook water games like “Marco Polo” in order to save drowning bees from the pool, and spending time on the improv stage in New York City, I’m excited to return to an original interest in pursuing stories that empower while combining my passions for communication, philanthropy, and speaking into microphones without a script.
