Teletha wants to live in a world that turns to collaborative resolution, understanding, and problem-solving when there is conflict or disagreement, rather than to hatred, violence and disengagement. In that possible world, all voices are included, people understand perspectives other than their own, and integral solutions are the norm. VISIONS embodies and works for that possible world so Teletha is deeply grateful to be part of a team doing that work. Teletha is also a professional mediator and facilitator, and has worked with small and large groups (in-person and virtually) in US nonprofits, community colleges, international NGOs, and global social enterprises. She lives and grew up in the southern US, at the foot of a mountain that is part of the Appalachian plateau. She enjoys hiking, swinging in her hammock, and petting her cat.
