President - Faith & Freedom Adult Sunday School Class
First United Methodist Church - Cary
- 2 years 1 month
Education
Faith and Freedom is non-traditional, operating as a book and video discussion group. Our material is selected by our curriculum committee. We have no designated class teacher; discussions are led by member volunteers who sign up on a weekly basis. Though not always theological in nature, the committee’s selections are thought provoking and generate lively class participation. Each year we distribute the funds we raise from volunteer activities to member nominated charities.

Know How: Experience, Expertise and Execution
When I left ShopperTrak, I was lucky to work with Shields Meneley Partners. They helped me develop a strategy to transition to my current role as board member and angel investor. When they asked me to help with this book, I was flattered to be invited and eager to help. Hope you have a chance to take a look and find it useful.
