Connecting Military Spouses with Opportunities to Serve

As a journalist based in the Bay Area, I seek out people who apply the same creativity and capital that make Silicon Valley the global center for innovation to problems that matter. Because I cover international development, I follow tech reporting closely, sifting through the endless stories on new apps that promise to make my life easier in order to find those few and far between examples of promising solutions to our shared global challenges. That is what led me to Kara Swisher, a technology journalist who captures perfectly the problem I am working to address: "There are a lot of big minds chasing small ideas in Silicon Valley."
