In the words of Ricky Ricardo, I’ve got some ‘splaining to do! I need to apologize for being MIA lately here on the site! Let me share what I’ve been up to:

I came back from the StartingBloc Institute in Boston so inspired and motivated to really “take a chance” and move back to DC without much of a plan (eg. Job/Income/Home) and “make things happen”. The last couple of months living in Indiana have certainly been valuable in terms of my personal and professional growth — allowing me opportunities to explore this field that I love so much. But the time has come for me to turn what I have learnt into action. So I’ll be moving back to DC in hopes of finding employment and creating a self-sustaining lifestyle for myself. The most important factor of my return is to surround myself with inspirational people, a supportive foundation for both personal and professional growth, and opportunities of all shapes and sizes. I’m excited about restarting my life in DC, and hope to be as active as possible!

Having said that, I’ve been really busy with post-StartingBloc phone calls and preparing for my move to DC. I’m back on the job-market and intend on hitting the ground running when I get back to DC. On top of all of that, I’ll be visiting my boarding school alma mater, Culver Military Academy, this week meeting with some faculty and community members. In addition, I’ll be guest speaking in a class on social entrepreneurship! I’ll be sure to record it and put it up on the site! The following week, I’m headed down to Miami for the SVC/SE conference where I’ll be speaking on a panel about corruption. The week after that, I’ll be packing and preparing for my drive back to DC on March 29th!

So I apologize for the lack of posts on the site! I’m trying to keep active on Twitter, so be sure to follow me there! I promise to get back to posting to the site very soon!
