Linda is a passionate believer in developing human potential through the arts. Throughout her career, she has grown organizations where community, creativity, and inclusion intersect. Prior to joining the Creativity Explored team in 2017, she was Program Manager at Center for Community Arts, a gathering place for arts learning at the City of Walnut Creek, and Executive Director at Streetside Stories, a San Francisco nonprofit that helps young people share stories through the arts.
Originally from Ohio, Linda studied English at The Ohio State University and social work at the University of Iowa. She continues to pinch herself at her good fortune in living in the Bay Area, where she loves to explore visual art, music and literature of all kinds and swim, camp and hike with family and friends.
