About Rick

I have over 40 years of experience in communicating well in business – and in the non-profit world. I write well and I speak well. I authored a grant for the Batwa Pygmies of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda, which was funded by Rotary International for $300,000. You can see a partial list of some writing samples here.

I’ve recently stepped into the position of Executive Director for the Drive Savant Foundation (DSF Werks), which is an organization committed to meeting the demands of adult life for youth aging out of the Foster Care system. Our intent is to provide them with community, mentorship and skills, to enable them to navigate adulthood safely and effectively. We believe it is a tragedy that over half of young people “emancipated” from Foster care end up homeless or incarcerated within two years of their emancipation. It shouldn’t be! And so we will train them in 2 main areas: Classic Car Restoration and New Media Arts.

Let’s do it together! Let’s do it now!
I’m ready to work with you . . . Shouldn’t We Be Talkin
