Volunteer Educator, Rheumatic Rescue 
May 2013-present
Rheumatic Rescue is a humanitarian organization working to prevent childhood rheumatic heart disease 
in Western Samoa. My objectives are twofold: First, help educate Samoan-speaking children and care-givers 
about rheumatic heart disease through art, song, dance, and theater. Second, raise awareness of the issue 
and garner funding for the program through photography, videography, graphic design, branding, web 
development, public service announcements, and constructing flyers, pamphlets, posters, and brochures. 
During my four trips to Western Samoa, I have embraced the complex nuances of teaching in a foreign 
country by employing artistic & theatrical methods to solidify learning and knock down cultural barriers.

Founder & Editor, HEX Magazine, Utah Valley Arts & Entertainment
Jan. 2011- Jan. 2013 
I spent two years with the project editing, writing, photographing, designing, distributing, interviewing, 
recruiting contributors and securing funding for the publication. Two friends and I launched this project 
with a grant from Utah Valley University. The aim of the publication was to highlight the vibrancy of the 
arts in the valley, kindle ideas for creative living, affirm the attractiveness of the community and expand 
the scope of its members by promoting urban and suburban exploration. The name HEX is an abstract 
nod to the tessellating shapes that make up honeycomb, the fruit of Utah’s state insect.

Co-Founder, Provo Poetry & Open Mic Night, Provo, UT
Nov. 2010-present
In an effort to create a living platform for poetry in Utah Valley, some friends and I
organized an Open-Mic poetry night. We solicited guest appearances from
nationally-recognized poets such as Alex Caldiero (featured on NPR) and Lance
Larsen (former Utah Poet Laureate). In tandem, we launched a poetry website
and created a biannual community chapbook called The Likewise Folio. The open
mic night is held bimonthly at the Coffeepod (426 w 1230 n) in Provo, UT.
