A Little About Finn…

Best at: Being open to new things. I’m good about saying “yes” to something I’ve never tried before. For example, I like to listen to new music every day. 

Worst at: Directions. I never know where I am or where I’m going. If I didn’t have a smartphone, I would be lost! 

Obsessed with: Environmental Justice: things that are environmentally friendly and put people first. When I served with the Farmworker Association, I learned about personhood as a tool for sustainability. If we don't move forward in the environmental movement with people who need justice in mind, we’re not going to move forward. I think it really matters, and we don’t talk about it enough. 

What’s your “why”?: Mutual aid. I think what we do as people who work in service is work to build equality. What we’re doing isn’t charity; we’re doing it with the community, as the community. 

Favorite Hallmark: We embrace the gift of diversity.
