About Bryan
Originally from Hillsborough, NC, I have worked as an Americorps VISTA volunteer, a Peace Corps Volunteer, Community Health Worker, Educator, Program Manager, and Support Specialist for over 15 years. I hold a BS in Psychology from Penn State University (We Are!....), and an MA in International Relations with a focus on development from American University (Go Eagles!). I am a certified Spanish/English translator/interpreter who splits time between my home state of North Carolina and the beloved country of Panama. When not serving my dedicated partners or working with funders, you can find me outdoors, spending time with family, and watering my plants. ​
Why Tépalo?
After working with government agencies, health centers, outreach programs, universities, international institutions, and non profit associations, we have learned one important fact:
​​
Non profit organizations need more support!
​
When our most vulnerable communities are experiencing great need, non profits are frequently their only life line. However, when that lifeline is stressed by staff capacity, grant cycles, reports, and the daily calls of our direct clients, management can be difficult!
​
Tépalo's dream and purpose is to provide another option to help alleviate this pressure. Whether holding up your special projects in a time of transition, working to develop your program, or giving your projects a creative boost, let Tépalo help you.
