Philanthropy

I've always liked the quote, "We die two deaths. One when our body dies and one another when we are no longer remembered." When I die, I want to be remembered as someone who loved my friends, family, and pets deeply, and that I did everything I could to make the world a better place with my actions. That extends into the workplace with the tools that I build to help others.

A few of the causes that I believe in:

  • LGBTQ+ rights and equality
  • Climate change, reducing our footprints, and replanting forests
  • Helping the impovershed and less fortunate
  • Animal sanctuaries
  • Disaster relief
  • Cancer research

Donations​

Locks of Love​

When the Covid pandemic happened, I wanted to take advantage of the full-remote work so I decided to grow out my hair to donate to Locks of Love. Cancer has run in my family and I have family members who actively have cancer. My heart goes out to those affected by cancer directly or indirectly.
