The Rockefeller Foundation announced its 2023 Bellagio Residency Cohort and I am thrilled to be included. What an extraordinary experience to be a resident at Bellagio Center in Lake Como, Italy this month. Here I am standing outside the Santa Caterina studio assigned to me during my stay at the Bellagio Center Villa Serbelloni. I cherish my experience living and working among such expansive and creative thinkers manifesting breakthrough approaches to a more peaceful and sustainable world. Grateful to say that we remain friends bonded by an exquisite life experience. My gratitude to Kabir Sehgal and Larry Laboe for recommending me for the residency.
