* Please describe your professional and personal experiences, interest, and qualifications that make you a good fit for this board.
How do we ensure people have an affordable place to live and work in Bozeman, while encouraging new arrivals to fully participate in the economic life of the region. My
work is at this nexus. Graduate students need affordable housing. At the same time, these students will start new companies or bring their skills to existing organizations.
All that I do is collaborative. I am known for thinking about creative solutions and being able to analyze data to reveal patterns and inform decisions.
* The City of Bozeman strongly values diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Describe any efforts you have engaged in to expand your understanding of
DEI.
I am responsible for advancing DEI across MSU’s graduate degrees. Two approaches; 1) systemic changes in policy, e.g. removing both the GRE exam for admission and
high-stakes gateway exams that differentially impact marginalized students, and 2) increasing practices that impact one person at a time, e.g. including equity into
workshops for faculty and staff, safezone training for GTAs, and scholarships for Indigenous students. In all that I do, I ask how this will impact our diverse students.
