I take direction well, and tend to dive in whenever and wherever needed, without overstepping boundaries. Also, good with arranging hospitality and tech for musicians, artists, performers. Having organized retreats, workshops, theatre presentations, and music festivals for decades. I'm a lover of the arts and this beautiful planet. ♥️
