	Ways Women Lead

After 9/11, I founded Voices of Women (www.voicesofwomen.org), an organization focused on educating ourself and others on US and foreign policy; seeking peaceful solutions to conflict; empowering women in a worldwide campaign for peace. We have staged 30+ events, some involving the power of theatrical events, and raised considerable $$s for global causes. We support an organization in Afghanistan AWEC, and are closely affiliated with the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice, USD. I operate a communications business nationwide (www.prisk.com) where I coach and train executives and individuals to enhance their communication. I also write a weekly theatre column and read to first graders at a local elementary school. Throughout the year I act as a TV anchor for PBS San Diego where I raise funds and interview guests. I hope this is not too much!
