Favorite room in my house:
My 3rd floor home office—it sits in the midst of ancient pine trees creating a natural oasis in the middle of an urban landscape.  

How my experiences are tied to CommonBond’s work:
In the early 1980’s I was blessed to be a resident in an affordable housing development and experienced first-hand the benefits secure housing provided me in support of my education and employment. Later in my career I worked closely with Indigenous communities in Australia to support their efforts to develop sustainable communities, including employment, housing and services.  

Home is:
Where family and friends find sanctuary.
