Rooted in purpose. Driven by impact.
The Twin Cities is a vibrant, distinctive hub where community engagement, cultural diversity, and a strong sense of social responsibility intersect to create a powerful environment for nonprofit work. From the legacy of grassroots activism in the Civil Rights Movement to the modern-day work being done by organizations addressing housing, education, and racial justice, the Twin Cities demand leaders who are visionary, collaborative, and grounded in community. That’s where I come in.
