Hello and thanks for visiting my blog, Life's Conservation. My name is Kevin Adams and I hope to spark new ideas, encourage conversation, and inspire action via my blog. I am a change agent for life. Where there is injustice, hopelessness, or a lack of love I hope assist in some way possible. I believe our goal is to respect, preserve, and help all forms of life thrive.
As a professional, I work at Costco Wholesale, serve as a reservist in the U.S. Coast Guard, and learn about business sustainability through Bainbridge Graduate Institute's (BGI) MBA in Sustainable Systems. As a new student at BGI, I am thrilled at the prospect of developing the intra- and entrepreneur within myself and walking down the MBA path with the incredible people that BGI attracts.
To begin the journey at BGI I am in a class entitled Capitalism in Context, which explores the current state of our capitalist economy and views it from various perspectives around sustainability. With a background in marine science and policy, I have much to learn. My mind will be constantly filled and pulled in different directions as I learn the impacts of our economy, capitalist society, and how sustainability fits into the this puzzle. I hope to keep up with the pace of work and gain the knowledge necessary to talk business. Working on a business project team should prove extremely helpful in utilizing the tools and processes learned in class. My project team, Rivers and Oceans, will have the opportunity to define a business idea that relates somehow to Rivers and Oceans. I will be working with a stellar group of individuals and will also bring expertise to the table myself.
Through team projects, class discussions, and individual counseling I will learn how to make a difference at the business level. I imagine myself at the crest of a tidal wave of potential and can't wait to see what opportunities arise to address injustice, shine a light into hopelessness, and love life along the way.
Kevin, so glad to see you on the blogosphere and to walk out this MBA journey together.
