For me a perfect day is walking to the farmers’ market, buying whatever is in season, cooking all afternoon, and sharing what I make with friends well into the evening. For every other day there’s the Co-op, my daily connection to fresh, seasonal, and local food for as long as I can remember.

Outside of the Co-op and my kitchen, I run a branding and strategy agency called Block Club and am a partner in Buffalo-based pennant and flag company, Oxford Pennant. For more than 15 years, I’ve been a managing partner and partner in businesses with a combined workforce of nearly 90 teammates where we strive to foster a creative and open-minded environment focused on servant leadership; provide a great place to work for everyone; and delivery quality work for our customers every day.

I was motivated to join the Co-op board because my values align with the values of the Co-op, because I believe in the importance of building a vibrant co-op economy, because of the Co-op’s commitment to local farmers and building a sustainable food system in WNY, and because I want to help ensure the Co-op’s continued success in Buffalo.
