With travel precautions and social gathering restrictions still in effect, RM’s summer activities are going to look very different from previous years. We view this as an opportunity to evolve and are excited to welcome two staff, Mckim Jean-Pierre and Aniqah Zowmi, who will be supporting our collective work and learning this summer! They both bring a creative and inquisitive mindset to their work while also bringing a diversity of experiences and areas they’re passionate about to their respective roles.
Learn more about our new staff members below!
