Describe your experience I have facilitated Community Conversations with Inclusive !�
engaging other community Dubuque and focus groups for the lowa Department of Public '
members to gather their Health. I have coordinated two projects which resulted in books �
input and opinions: titled FACING DIVERSITY: MARSHALLESE STORIES and ;
�
FACING DIVERSITY: LGBTQ+ STORIES. These projects I�
involved pairing storytellers with volunteer community writers '
and collecting stories of personal experiences of the two ';
focused groups. With my job, I frequently engage the Pacific ��
Islander community in our brainstorming sessions to develop
programming and adjust accordingly from the feedback we

What contributions can you I was born in Dubuque and spend free time riding the streets ��
make or state reason for on my motorcycle which has given me a good overview of the ��
r
applying? City with where difficulties arise due to topography and where
concessions could be made in planning access. With my life �
based in Dubuque I have also seen how the City has changed i
;
nver the last few decades with some ofi my design iime spent �
working on the South West Arterial and US 20 interchange up ��
to 2015. With my past being based in Dubuque along with my I;
future I have been and will continue to traverse the streets of r
Dubuque and so the planning process for future access will ,�
�'
affect me going forward. G
I also have experience in infrastructure and planning due to �
being a civil engineer.
Describe your experience My experience has been to always create a plan and a strategy 1
working in diverse first. This allows things to progress in an efficient manner and
environments: when issues arise it is easier and more efficient to make
changes than it would have been otherwise.
In Afghanistan I worked alongside interpreters and the Afghan �
�.�tior�! �rmy#o pr�vid���curity for lc��! pel;tical fi�Gr�s as �
well as the Army's public relations personnel. In these cases �
language and social norms are different than I had been �
accustomed to but I was able to learn things that I had not
known prior to going into the experience. I used empathy and
understanding to adapt and bridge the gaps in communication
2
with the interpreters and implemented social norms for their i
people to develop understanding and a basic relationship.
In my profession I work with designers, clients, as well as
construction personnel to complete projects successfully. The
diversity among the various people involved with the project
allows me to empathize and consider the perspectives of
others and work through conflicts to get to a successful �S
completion of the project. �
_M__��.._,_� _r�� ._.��...__ .�. _._. __,.__ �.�
Describe your experience On several projects with clients I have been the organizer and
engaging other community facilitator at community engagement meetings to get the i
members to gather their public's opinion about the current project to see what concerns
input and opinions: and questions they have. I would try to answer questions or
concerns and if I was not able to answer them at that time I j
would research the topic and provide the information later (;
either at a follow up meeting or through correspondence. ,;
I have also meef one on one with specific individuals with the ;�
client present to address concerns or questions. a�
The nature of my profession requires that I engage the public i
and interested parties on projects as part of insuring the ii
;
� successful completion of the project. '�I
Typically the experience has been positive and when there is �I
�
push back I work to understand their side and if I can try to j�
I
explain compelling reasons and insights to facilitate li
understanding or make changes to address their concerns if it I�,
