A dharma practitioner for more than 20 years and a strategic marketing professional for longer than that, I’m thrilled at the unique opportunity to blend the two areas in support of this beautiful retreat center. As a dharma practitioner and teacher, I know every aspect of the retreat experience from participant, manager, teacher, and organizer. As a marketer, I hope to help support the mission of Big Bear Retreat Center to foster compassion, equity, and justice in the world through its programs.
