An Advocate, Educator, and Developer.
CV
Professional Summary
I'm Avery. I'm an advocate, an educator, and an analyst. I'm also a three-dimensional thinker. Not only do I consider how important and how urgent something is, but I also consider how long something will matter for. My ideal environment forces me to work on urgent, important tasks to develop sustainable, long-term solutions rather than short-term fixes. Three-dimensional thinking allows me to work towards making the future better rather than just the present.
