Cubes&Crayons Coworking
meet Holly, mother of 15 month old Victoria and nonprofit and environmental consultant. When not playing with her little one, Holly is out doing strategic planning and grant writing for such organizations as Golden Gate Prks. Find out how she is getting it all done at
Cubes&Crayons.What brought you to Cubes&Crayons?
I found out about Cubes & Crayons through Blossom Birth where I had gone for new mother support groups after my daughter was born. I needed a flexible child care option for days when my primary child care situation doesn't work (for instance, when they close for vacation) or on Fridays when I plan to be off, but get sucked into doing more work for clients and need a few extra hours child care.
What do you do for a living?
I'm a consultant. I primarily do grant writing for nonprofit organizations, particularly environmental groups. I also help with strategic planning and general organizational issues. Two days a week I'm in San Francisco working with the Golden Gate Parks Conservancy to build the section of the Coastal Trail along the western Coastal Bluffs -- a nice change from working from home on my computer!
What is your favorite part of the Cubes&Crayons Community?
I'm haven't been there enough to meet a lot of the others, but the staff are really great and I love seeing what type of chocolate there is to be had in the breakroom!
