3.7 Dell: Building a Healthier Community
This week I have a very special guest with me on the podcast. Dell and I worked together at the University of Nebraska becoming fast friends and programming partners as we pushed to make change for future scholars. Dell was a person of accountability in my life asking the right questions as the right time to keep me moving forward toward my goals.
Dell grew up in Omaha Nebraska learning from an early age that community is the core of everything. As a kid his track coaches helped him see that his impact could extend far beyond the field and classroom. Dell speaks highly of those who influenced him through his life and opened the door to opportunities for him to not only learn but also make an impact on others. Through his years at TCU as a student, his time working as an admissions professional and now leading a team focused on workforce excellence for the Omaha Chamber, he is taking all he has learned and helping to build up and craft opportunities for others.
Dell and I talk all about his experiences and how they shaped his prospective. How he and his incredible wife have taken an idea to make local and thoughtful toys and grown it into a maker’s market highlighting underrepresented own business from the local community. He shares about the initiates he is leading with the chamber to keep and bring young talent to Omaha and then helps give a road map for each of us to follow as we think about getting involved and being a part of making our own communities healthier and stronger.
