Thank you for joining me in supporting the Louis August Jonas Foundation and Camp Rising Sun by contributing to my Alumni Weekend/Walk-Bike-Run fundraiser! As you may know, I am proud to serve on the board of this incredible organization.

Every dollar I raise will support the 2024 Camp Rising Sun Programs and over 150 campers from 30+ countries as they expand their knowledge of compassionate leadership and put it into practice.

Thank you for supporting me and this organization that is so close to my heart.

The Louis August Jonas Foundation (LAJF) plays an instrumental role in the development of young talent and future leaders across the globe through its Camp Rising Sun program.  Camp uses experiential learning to instill decision-making, organizational, and problem-solving skills in order to cultivate future ethical and diverse leaders.  The values associated with this organization and the qualities that LAJF seeks to foster among its participants align with my own personal values and have helped to shape my own personal and professional self.  They further reflect the characteristics that will be critical to success for generations to come.

As a teenager, I had an opportunity to play in a touring band that exposed me to a diverse set of people and ideas and which opened my eyes to the world around me beyond that of my hometown.  Through these experiences with the band, I found a commonality among my peers and developed tools that instilled confidence in my abilities to collaborate and lead in a variety of situations, both personally and professionally.  Our mission resonates with me because it focuses on these outcomes, which have been critical to my own development and will be required for the success of future generations.
