The Feast 2012

Stop waiting for the world to change. Change it and the world will follow.

Started in 2008, The Feast fosters a community of remarkable people that make the world work better. I met co-founder Jerri Chou in 2011 while she was rethinking the organization.

Together, we brought back The Feast in 2012 with a new focus on in-person collaboration and public initiatives.
