Not Dead Yet vol. 1

Your friendly neighborhood (for Boston and Lowell) VISTA Leader here, detailing how I have not died once again. Take that Grim Reaper!

Of course, it was great meeting all the VISTAs for this year, and I look forward to working with and learning from you.

This last month was consumed with PSO, so developing the materials in the binder and the On-Going Professional Development materials was my big concern. Any resources I have generated has gone into the PSO binder or OGPD.

Right now, I am working on the On-Going Professional Development (OGPD) materials and researching CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software for both managing finances and project/program management.

Projects on the horizon are helping develop the marketing and communications plan for CTC VISTA, particularly around upcoming conferences, where I will hopefully see more of the VISTAs and OGPD roll-out.

Challenges: Boston is still trying to kill me, as usual. Figuring out how to get across all of the ideas/actions for the Marketing section of the OGPD. Evaluating the CRM software when I won't be the main user.

I think that is it for me. Again, good luck with your work, don't hesitate to contact with questions, and have fun storming the castle.
