Before dedicating herself full-time to collaboration consulting, Joy had nearly 18 years of experience as a community planner, facilitator, mediator and trainer while working for the National Park Service Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance Program. Her passion for authentic public engagement underscores her deep commitment to community dialogue and public processes where people hear each other, understand each other, and find ways to work together effectively. Her experience working within all levels of city, county, state, and federal government agencies as well as community groups and non-profit organizations, has resulted in success in reaching group consensus on contentious projects. Joy's primary focus is to help individuals and groups translate individual power into collective action through effective collaboration.
