Changes

My work and play has included being on teams for university and nonprofit website development teams, Montessori education teams, communication strategy teams - , fundraising for charitable causes . . . and Calvinball teams! I interpret "team" broadly - my family, neighborhood, community, poets, artists, and various other identity groups are also among my teams.

I'm always up for good ice-breakers and get-to-know-you-better activities. I enjoy pairing for silly drawing projects doing art together, such as[[Drawing Fun]], and inventing creative writing collaborations. And I love the many activities people have created to help us become aware of and appreciate our diversity. Service projects, I've found, build our teams as well as warm our hearts. I prefer non-competitive games - for instance, I have a great time with the Teampedia activity [[Song Battle]], but not the score-keeping variation. (I do make exceptions, such as for a rowdy Pictionary session, or Chinese Checkers when I'm winning. I feel strongly that service projects build our teams as well as warm our hearts.)
