It’s important that we form personal relationships with each other and begin working on a shared goal for the future of this region. Seattle Works is uniquely positioned to bring people in their 20s and 30s together to begin this important work and establish the trust between us it will take to move Seattle forward.

Most of my work is focused on the thoughts and opinions of Baby Boomers. But our generation is doing some amazing things in a much different way than our parents would have. Seattle Works gives me a tremendous opportunity to challenge more of us to get involved to make our future what we want it to be.
