After graduation Ailsa spent a year living in an intentional community and working in 正澳门六合彩鈥檚 Career Development Center through Lawrence House Episcopal Service Corps, and has also worked as an externship and college access program facilitator at Girls Inc. of the Valley. She appreciates opportunities to ask big questions, listen deeply, and think creatively about how we communicate and connect with others, and is proud of having worked with young people of every age, from birth through college! When not working, Ailsa can be found taking meandering runs and walks, quilting, and writing postcards to family and friends.
