Politics
I enjoy volunteering and assisting non-profits at the board level. I served as President of the Washington State News Council, an independent, nonprofit, statewide organization whose members share a common belief that fair, accurate and balanced news media are vital to our democracy.
I served on the board of Crosscut.com, the Pacific Northwest’s independent, reader-supported, nonprofit news site. Crosscut strives to provide readers with the facts and analysis they need to intelligently participate in civic discourse, and to create a more just, equitable and sustainable society.
I've given my time and money to The Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) who provide full scholarship grants to the surviving children of Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps special operations personnel who lose their lives in the line of duty. SOWF also provide immediate financial assistance for severely wounded special operations personnel and their families. read more
