This post was inspired by the 2014 Candidate Experience Awards Symposium.
"Regardless of the changes in technology, the market for well-crafted messages will always have an audience."
— Steve Burnett, The Burnett Group
What Steve Burnett didn't note was that the change in technology has made crafting great messages a bit more difficult: We need to understand what "well-crafted" means for different channels like Twitter, email, job boards and mobile, as well as through different stages, including pre-apply, interviewing, onboarding and resignation.
Yes, even resignation. This means that the candidate experience isn't solely about the application process; it begins well before and ends well after. It continues throughout the entire relationship between the individual and the organization–even through hire, years of employment and resignation. Further, we should be looking to others internally and externally to help optimize how we communicate to and engage our candidates throughout their journey.
As you build out your communication strategies, focus on these three audiences in your pursuit of well-crafted messaging for the candidate experience:
The Candidate
Obvious, but we have to start here. Really take a look at how you're talking to your candidates throughout the entire attraction and hiring process. Are your processes and next steps transparent? Are you being proactive in outreach and follow-ups?
The idea of "closing the loop" is a great way to think about your communication strategy to candidates. As candidates take actions in your recruiting process (i.e., visit your career site, apply for a job, interview with a hiring manager, etc.) they should receive an appropriate reaction from the organization at each point, whether it's a customized automated response or a personal email from a recruiter or hiring manager. This clues in the candidate that you notice and thanks them for their interest and also enables you to set up what will happen next in the process to keep that interest.
The best communication sets proper expectations for candidates about your process: frequency of contact once they join your Talent Network; who they can expect communication from; potential timeline of each stage of the hiring process.
Internal Stakeholders
While communication with candidates is foremost, it's also essential to be on the same page internally with your hiring managers and business partners. I quoted a great point from Lockheed Martin's Marvin Smith on Twitter: We need to remember that hiring managers are ultimately the clients for talent acquisition. The better we understand their needs and communicate with them throughout the hiring process, the better the experience will be for both the business and the candidate. We need to give internal stakeholders a peek into "how the sauce is made," giving insight into the candidate's journey before their resume lands on the hiring manager's desk.
So what does should internal communication look like? One term I've been hearing a lot is "Talent Advisor." The Talent Advisor should serve as the champion of the business needs: building strong relationships with candidates and hiring managers and ensuring the hiring process is seamless on both sides. There may be one or a few people who take on this role right now in your organization, but perhaps in bits and pieces. If there isn't budget for a team member focused on this integration function, you should be focused on setting up a process of meetings and communication between recruiters and hiring managers. There is nothing worse than when a candidate walks into an interview with the hiring manager and both people are completely disconnected. That stems from a disconnect between the recruiter and hiring manager, so don't make a fool out of three people.
Current Employees (and Alumni)
At the Candidate Experience Symposium, a speaker discussed how bad organizations treat team members who are leaving the company, and I saw nearly everyone else nodding their heads. If everyone is nodding their heads, then HR needs to implement change in exit communication and process. The candidate experience, despite its name, does not end when a candidate turns into an employee–it spans the full lifetime between that individual and the organization. The candidate who became an employee who became a retiree may continue to refer qualified talent and advocate for the company for life. The same goes for an employee who had a seamless and warm resignation. But an employee who had a great hiring experience and a great few years can quickly change their tune if the organization shows resentment or worse, apathy, during their exit.
Communication guidelines and touchpoint timeline are key to developing a clear and valuable employee exit process. Ensure the parting transition and terms are reasonable, provide the employee a forum for feedback and offer ways to stay in touch if they're interested. Overall, after a candidate is passed on or an employee resigns, you should feel comfortable reaching out to them for future opportunities. This can be a huge boon to your employer brand and overall reputation–as an employer, you never know when their skills and your organization might be the perfect match.
The organizations that focus on communication and connection with potential, current and past candidates can truly affect their business results and company culture.

Strykes Fear Into Everything Else. The all-new Stryker by Star Motorcycles is the coolest bike to toll off the assembly line since the Raider took the industry by storm. With its raked out front and "fists in the wind" riding position, this bike is pure attitude. And with fuel injection, a 1304cc V-twin, and a beautiful final belt drive, the Stryker churns out plenty of low-end torque that gets to the ground in a very satisfying way. It's time for an attitude adjustment.

Ashburton Physiotherapists
Leah Mears and Jenny Wigram are global in their approach and look at consider all aspects of your life. Work and recreation patterns help us to reach a diagnosis. Once we have sourced the pain or problem, we devise a treatment plan and timescale to achieve your goals. The simpler problems sometimes need only one session to find out what is wrong and put you on the road to recovery.
At Ashburton Physio, Leah Mears and Jenny Wigram give time to listen to you and your story. An accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment through questioning and examination. The examination may involve looking at parts of the body distant from your pain. For example, a knee problem may relate to abnormal foot positioning. Or, foot pain may be a back problem.
Leah Mears and Jenny Wigram are Chartered Physiotherapists and regulated by The Health and Care Professions Council. We are members of the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists. We are therapists with a wealth of experience. We update our CPD (Continuous Professional Development) on a regular basis.
We have a proven success record and in the last few years, more than half our patients are returners.

A Singapore-based Indian businessman has been arrested and let out on bail as an investigation is launched into his alleged involvement in a case of molestation on board a domestic flight in India.
Dr Ravindra Jhunjhunwala, a Singapore permanent resident with business interests in Singapore and India, has been accused by a woman passenger of touching her on an IndiGo flight from Mumbai to Bhubaneswar on Jan 27.
The entrepreneur, believed to be in his 60s, was seated behind the 32-year-old woman on the flight.
"He inserted his hand through the gap in the seats and tried to inappropriately touch her body with the motive of sexual gratification," Bhubaneswar Police Commissioner R.P. Sharma was quoted as saying by India's NDTV.
Dr Jhunjhunwala is chairman of the Orind and Shashwat group of companies, which deal with heat-resistant material for various industries.
Dr Jhunjhunwala, who is now in India as his passport has been impounded by the police, told The Straits Times by telephone that he has been framed.
"I have been well and truly framed. The truth will come out and I will be exonerated. The matter is under investigation.
"I have no criminal record in Singapore. In (my) 18 years (in Singapore), there is not a single blemish on me," he said.
But in videos shot with a cellphone by the woman, in which she confronts the businessman first on board the flight and then in the airport after alighting, he can be heard saying: "I'm prepared to face any consequence for it. I made a mistake..."
When the woman suggests he give her a written apology, he says: "For touching you I want to give you a written- I request you."
The videos of the incident uploaded on YouTube have gone viral. The first video taken on board the flight has been viewed more than four million times.
Television channels have also aired the videos.
In the first video, taken as passengers were getting ready to disembark, the woman is seen telling off the businessman, who sits in his seat covering his face with his hand.
Alternating between English and Hindi, she says: "I'm video-taping you, mister! If you ever do this again, you'll remember this episode.
"You think we girls stay silent and you can do anything, right? Look here, why are you so bashful now?
"Have you seen your age? Old man. You are halfway to the grave but still do not have enough brains.
"I will call security. I'll make sure I make a complaint."
The woman cannot be named because alleged victims of sexual crimes cannot be identified under Indian laws.
Such crimes are in focus in India since the fatal gang rape of a 23-year-old physiotherapy student in Delhi in 2012.
The woman was later treated in a hospital in Singapore, but she died from her injuries.
The brutal attack has led to a tightening of laws against sexual violence.
Reporting of such crimes has also risen since the 2012 tragedy.
Police have registered a case against the businessman under a section in the Indian Penal Code related to unwelcome overtures, which carry a maximum sentence of three years' jail.
"We have lodged a case and we are investigating. We have interviewed the Singapore-based man. He is out on bail," said police investigator Rashmi Ranjan Sahu.

The failure to find wreckage from the missing Malaysia Airlines plane and the slow release of official information has left the troubled hunt mired in uncertainty and continues to spawn a growing range of sightings and conspiracy theories.
Almost three months since the Boeing 777 and its 239 passengers went missing, the search has found no debris and criminal investigators have found no evidence of terrorism or a motivation behind the apparently deliberate sabotage of the plane.
The search has focused for months on a stretch of the Indian Ocean off the coast of Australia, but the entire operation is relying on satellite data that was never intended to chart the course of the plane.
Meanwhile, distraught families across the world hold hope that their loved ones may have survived and have led a push for the release of all information about the flight.
Authorities in Australia continue to believe the plane is somewhere in the south Indian Ocean and have pledged to press ahead with the underwater operation, releasing a tender calling for companies to conduct the search.
Perhaps not surprisingly, the lack of firm evidence of the plane's final resting point and the failure to find debris has led to a growing number of conspiracy theories and possible sightings.
In recent days, a British woman claimed to have seen the plane while on a sailing voyage from India to Thailand.
This followed various other sightings shortly after the plane disappeared, including claims the plane flew low over houses in the Maldives or near an oil rig off the coast of Vietnam.
Others have speculated that military authorities must have access to radar data which has not been disclosed; indeed, there has been surprisingly little data made available despite the plane disappearing in a part of Asia that has become increasingly tense in recent years.
Others have gone further, claiming the plane may have landed on an airfield in troubled or overlooked parts of the world, from Afghanistan to the Andaman Islands.
Meanwhile, information continues to trickle out.
In the past two weeks, authorities in Malaysia released the cargo manifest and the satellite data used to plot the apparent course of the plane after it made its unexplained turn south.
A scientist in Australia is investigating a noise detected by underwater equipment which has been traced back to a location somewhere off the tip of India.
Authorities leading the search in Australia have been forced to make the embarrassing admission that they searched the wrong area for months and that there was no debris in a zone in which apparent black box pings were heard.
But they continue to insist that the satellite data is an accurate guide to the plane's whereabouts, even as they shift to a new uncertain phase in the search. The next phase, to begin in August, will cover more than 23,000 square miles.
It is due to take 12 months – leaving plenty of time for further claims, theories and official data.

By clicking the 'Schedule for appointment' icon, he can fix any time convenient to get to get the number plate installed on his vehicle.As per information, the authorities will arrange all the number plates according to the time a day in advance so that a customer is not harassed and does not waste his time by standing in a long queue.The Short Message Service (SMS) started by the authorities is also running successfully where the client gets to know about the present status of his number plate. The SMS is sent to the registered mobile number of the customer to inform him that his number is ready to install and he can come for the installation after receiving the message instead of going to the department daily.Ajay Rehal, HSRP zonal operation manager said the initiative was taken to facilitate the customers and lower the burden on their employees. "The SMS facility is getting a good response and the client can avail the facility of the newly-started appointment system through which they can save time," he said.Soon, the HSRP will also be started in the sub-divisions of Kapurthala district as currently, customers from all sub divisions have to come to Kapurthala city just to get their number plates installed.Authorities have identified places in three sub divisions, the tehsil office of Phagwara, old tehsil office of Bholath and SDM office of Sultanpur Lodhi where the HSRPs will be installed.Tajinder Singh, district transport officer (DTO) said he had sent a proposal letter to the government for permission to set up HSRP counters at sub divisional levels."I hope within this month, the proposal letter is accepted by the government and we can set up the counters in our sub divisions," he said.Singh also appealed to the customers who had given installation fees for their number plates but had not come to get them installed to get the same done or their plates will be destroyed and the user will have to re-apply for a new number plate."More than 7,000 number plates are lying waste in our stock as customers have not come to get them installed," he said.

Fortress America: Bringing the war back home
Controversy regarding police enforcement is at an all time high due to the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO. Police enforcement is under scrutiny for numerous reasons, and the sweeping coverage of Brown's death is instrumental in demands for change and justice. protests are no longer solely focused on Brown's death, but have turned into a nation-wide debate regarding demands for demilitarization.
Police militarization is a prominent topic of discussion due to the extensive money spent needed to finance military-grade weapons and resources, and the contemptuous dynamics between enforcement and the public as a result. The American Civil Liberties Union states that "the war comes home" with "the excessive militarization of American policing."
The public fear that what once was a protective power has turned into a war-minded force, bearing irrefutable consequences.
The fear of racial profiling is not a newly generated fear; in small towns such as Ferguson with a prominently black community being run by a majorly white over-populated police force, convictions of injustice happen all too often.
Statistics show a progressively higher trend in action taken against black men ages 18-34, much like the Brown incident.
What statistics? Sources? Beliefs that police disproportionally target young black men and other men of color has been an ongoing certainty in communities, and the war-like tactics being practiced recently are leaving an even higher level of fear in citizens.
SMC student Ryan Miles believes there's a "higher level of aggression and assumption towards people of color."
She says that "for as far back as [she] remembers, there's always been reports of unwarranted action taken against non-white people." Admittedly not knowing hard details, Miles comments that "there is a greater fear of police, and an uncertainty of whether they're for or against us."
With such turmoil and concern regarding police, the government should be taking action in attempts to resolve a historically high profile matter.
In spite of prudent attempts for change, there has been less than satisfying results; such as Brown V. Wilson, a lack of cold, hard evidence is upheld in court, rather than witness reports with discretionary inconsistencies.
It's no coincidence that when asked of the publics confidence in police ethics and honesty, 45 percent of blacks answered yes compared to 59 percent of whites. The ACLU commented that police militarization "unfairly impacts people of color and undermines individual liberties."
Looking at the bigger picture related to distrust in the policing system, militarization is at the core of the matter. An East Los Angeles Police Officer, who wished to remain anonymous due to the current sensitivity in the matter, said, "[he] understands the controversy and the outrage, but in the broader spectrum, the change and accessibility of military-grade weapons needs to be taken in account. If someone dangerous may be in possession of a weapon of that nature, [he] needs to feel secure in the ability to protect."
The need to feel secure arguably plays a big part in the matter at hand. Furthermore, though, is the cost of arming these forces with such weapons.
Back in 2011, reports of the Department of Homeland Security showed at least $34 billion dollars have gone to supplying military equipment. Property foreclosures have brought millions more to finance the change.
In 2014 alone, an estimated 22 percent of federal spending goes to defense. Ever since the war on terror in 2001, money toward national defense has skyrocketed. The war on drugs only adds to the expenditure and in turn continues to create a police force that could easily be mistaken for a military unit.
There is a sobering acceleration of the number of SWAT raids in the 1970s compared to recent years. From what was once only a few hundred annually, by 2005, an average of 50,000 raids take place per year. The majority of these raids are due to nonviolent crimes and to make matters worse, black and latinos account for about 50 percent of the raids.
As debates of police militarization and discrimination spiral out of control, the problems are likely to get worse. With no reformation, and as sensitivity on the matter rises, conclusions of racial targeting and brutality will be made with or without substantial evidence due to an unheard nation.
The police must actively be demilitarized and once again become a protective force rather than an intimidating one. Money, rather than being spent on weaponry, should begin funding education and other various systems that lessen the number of participants in the drug trade. Race must become an unconsidered factor in policing tactics.

THIRD PUTT IS GOOD - In
order to speed up play, the max putts on any hole is THREE (3). This
will give everyone the chance to drill their second putt as far past as
they want, they are automatically good coming back. You CANNOT score a
POLIE on your third putt.
HOLE IN ONE - A Hole-In-One pays $20 from
every player in the BGA in attendance at a sanctioned BGA event. This includes half-weekers and rabbits at the
annual Southern Tour who might not actually be there for the shot.
MUELLER – In order to even the playing field for all golfers, the BGA offers each player one Mulligan per round. It must be played from the Tee. If
you call your Mueller - YOU MUST PLAY IT - regardless of how your original shot ended up. As with BGA custom, you cannot collect ANY money on the Mulligan. This includes Flaggie, Greenie, and Hole in One. You can still collect on a birdie.
The "Uni" is an UNOFFICIAL BGA custom most often seen in the higher handicap groups when teeing off on a hole with a long carry. If all four players hit their balls out of play, by UNANIMOUS consent a "Universal Mulligan" can be declared. If any one player decides that their shot is in play, they become the "Uni-buster" and no Uni is allowed.
SAVIOR – A player can elect to trade his Mueller to another player at any time
during the round for the price of one piece of JUNK. The Player
purchasing the Mueller must have the piece of Junk on the card when the trade
is made. The player can use any piece of positive junk to buy the savior, even if they are "net negative" with more pieces of negative junk than positive junk. Note: The Savior is NOT in play during the Calcutta or
on Tourney day.

**Every Sunday there is a NEW #OOTD post. So, make sure you're following Luxurybeautyheart. The blue follow button is to the right of this post or at the end (if you're on a mobile device)♡
Before we get started to today's exciting Summer #OOTD post, I want to introduce a new series that will go up on my YouTube Channel every Sunday; along with my weekly Fashion post here on WordPress.
Introducing.. the NEW FASHION SHORTS (get it!? no? OK!)
**Every Fashion SHORT (hence the name) will no be longer than ONE minute, but you will be able to see each #OOTD that I post every Sunday in action! I have been keeping this project a secret for some time now, and I'm so excited to FINALLY share it with you! Thank you all for your continued support and for coming back every Sunday!
Hello Beauties,
Today, I wanna talk about the Bohemian trend that keeps coming back every Summer! Which I definitely don't mind at all! I think during Summer the 'Boho look' is my most favorite trend of all.
Shoes: Forever 21; I have a feeling these are gonna be very loved this Summer! They go with almost anything, and let me not get started on how comfortable they are!
Crossbody Bag: BCBG; Another trend this Summer is mixing warm tones with cool tones. **But keep it simple when doing this, make sure the accessories you add, don't have a print. Especially if the dress has an all over print.
Just a little tip, But of course you can do whatever you want because, at the end of the day it's your style! If you think it looks good then Rock It! (Confidence is the best accessory)
My dress is from Free People; Which is one of my favorite stores to shop at for the perfect Boho look.
I tend to gravitate towards these type of dresses simply because, the materials they are made of tend to be very airy/lightweight; which means that in those scorching, hot, HOUSTON days, I don't have to sacrifice style for comfort!
I hope you enjoyed this weeks post and it gave you a little inspiration on something you can wear this Summer!
**Don't forget to watch this Outfit In Action Here
Confidence is the BEST accessory

Ideas from others to decorate the bohemian home: From left to right: 1) A vintage wooden window frame with screen makes a fantastic jewelry organizer especially for dangling earrings. 2) Literally book shelves! Great idea! Simply choose your books and purchase metal angle irons from your local hardward screw. Drill screws through the angle irons and into the books. This would make a great step system for cats or simple shelving. 3) Vintage bicycle wheels replace the common bulletin board. 4) Wooden embroidery hoops from fabric and craft stores make great frames for lovely fabric. A collection like the one pictured makes a beautiful wall statement! 5) Vintage spice tins make great flower vases.

A labor of love in our 1910 cottage ~ We created this nine-foot mosaic backsplash by recycling vintage: game pieces, Texas state plates, salt & pepper shakers, bottlecaps, spice tins, jar lids, Fiestaware cups & plates, and toile & flowered china. We also created a matching mosaic on the hanging lamp above the sink. The mosaic adhesives we use are: Household Goop, tile mastic, or adhesive grout. Try mastic as it's less expensive and the odor is not offensive. If you use Goop, ventilate the area well or wear a mask. We finished the project with sanded grout.

knowing that a long time ago
in October of an earlier

She was my first
taste of grass after
a long winter
and flowed like a charcoal

a tree after decades
of twisting, with a winter
She doesn't want my voice
at the far end
of a wire; no, she wants
my heat my weight my breath.

History :
The Department of Public Administration was started in the year 2005 with the initiative of Prof. A.K. Sharma, the Vice Chancellor of Mizoram University during the principalship of Dr. H.Lallungmuana. It is one of the youngest and the latest among the departments and it became the 19th functional Department of Pachhunga University College. First classes was started on 6th June, 2005 with I BA students.
The department was recognized by the University Grants Commission in 2010.
There were 2 teachers (Guest Lecturer) initially in the Department.
(i) David _
(ii) H.C.Lalchhuanawma
The two teachers laid the foundation of Public Administration Deptt. in Pachhunga University College. Few students were admitted in the initial years. There is an increasing strength of students in the coming years, and the department became one of the largest departments in terms of student's enrolment.
I BA students with faculty - 2005
Faculty (L-R) : H.C. Lalchhuanawma, David _
The two pioneer teachers employed as a Guest Lecturer became permanent teacher on 30th August 2006.
Guest Lecturers: It was not possible for the two teachers to carry out the heavy load of the department; therefore, one or two Guest Lecturers was employed every year as additional teacher for a period of 6 months.
(i) 2006 Lallawmkimi
(ii) 2007 (a) R.Lalrinchhani (b) John C. Lallawmawma
(iii) 2008 (a) R. Lalrinchhani (b) Lalropari Renthlei
(iv) 2009 (a) Lalropari Renthlei (b) Malsawmi Pachuau
(v) 2010 (a) Lalropari Renthlei (b) Malsawmi Pachuau
(vi) 2011 (a) Lalropari Renthlei (b) Malsawmi Pachuau
(c) Lalchatuanthangi (d) K. Zorammuana
Faculty - 2008
L-R : David _, Lalropari Renthlei, R.C. Lalrinchhani, H.C. Lalchhuanawma

Director: Heather Ashton Black
I am honored and excited to be a part of Mixed Greens, a real-life dream come true, and a place of love, peace, and learning for children and grown-ups alike! To learn more about me and our beginnings, please visit the Director tab in the About menu.
Site Supervisor & Sprouts Teacher: Olivia DeMarais
Hi, my name is Olivia and I am really excited to be a part of the Mixed Greens Community! I hold a Site Supervisor Permit and absolutely love working with children! I graduated from Chico State, earning a Bachelor's degree in Child Development with a double minor in Family Relations and Gender and Sexuality Studies. I am currently working towards my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education at Sonoma State University. A child is a curious learner, and having the opportunity to foster optimal growth and development with young children is a dream of mine. I see play, creative expression, diversity, cultural awareness, and an intentional environment as vital pieces to children's learning process.
In my spare time I love reading, watching movies, and trying new restaurants! I also love being around family and friends!
Flowers Teacher: Mahogany Walker
Hello everyone, my name is Mahogany (or Miss Mo), and I'm so thankful to have joined the Mixed Greens Family! Previously, I've been a teacher at Kindercare in Rohnert Park, and I've also spent time volunteering at Mt. Taylor Children's Center in Santa Rosa. My love for Child Development began once my niece, who recently turned five, was born. As I watched her grow every day, I became very intrigued by how she learned and by all the cool things I could teach her at such a young age. I began taking Child Development courses at the Santa Rosa Junior College in the Spring of 2015. It was during that first class that I knew working with children was what made my heart happy.
Childhood was such a wonderful time in my life, and as a teacher, I not only want to create similar fun memories for other children, but also want to help show them the ways of being a successful member in their community. Working with small children, I feel that it's important to show them that they are respected, encourage and celebrate cultural diversities, pursue curiosities during play, and discover the environment and all the wonderful living and nonliving beings within it. When I'm not interacting with the kiddos, I enjoy doing physical fitness activities, trying new restaurants, and learning new makeup tips.
Seedlings Co-Teacher: Catherine McCracken-Jones
Hi there! My name is Catherine McCracken-Jones, and I am a Certified Positive Discipline Parent & Classroom Educator and Trainer through the Positive Discipline Association. I live in Santa Rosa, California with my family, dog and two cats.
I have 25 years of experience Early Childhood Education as both a Teacher and Director. While working for the Santa Rosa Education Cooperative, umbrella for the Santa Rosa Co-op Preschool & K-8 Independent Charter school, I learned about this wonderful thing called Positive Discipline… I obtained my initial training and started teaching Positive Discipline to families in 2003. I can't imagine doing anything more rewarding!
I worked for the SREC for 18 years and sadly, it had to close it's doors in 2016 due to lack of a permanent site. While with the SREC, I was the Director of the preschool as well as the childcare for 8 years. Before that I was one of the preschool teachers. I also taught Positive Discipline classes to the parents of all age groups as well as mentored teachers. While the school closing was a blow, it opened another door of opportunity to start my own Positive Discipline business.
I was a Presenter for the Sonoma County Early Learner's Conference at Sonoma State University in 2015 and 2017, and have a passion for helping families and classrooms build a strong foundations of Mutual Respect. I am so excited to join the Mixed Greens team and community!
Seedlings Co-Teacher: Heather Harrison
Hi there, my name is Heather Harrison. I am more than thrilled to be a part of this amazing community of Mixed Greens! I completed teacher training hours at Mixed Greens years ago, and have been the Director/Counselor at Camp Ever Greens and a substitue at Mixed Greens for about 3 years now. Ever since I was a little girl, I have always had a passion for the outdoors. Gardening, camping, and running cross country were a few of my favorite activities. I have also had an extreme connection with animals, always training my dogs' basic obedience and specialty tricks as well. I was a very active FFA (Future Farmers of America) member in the Campbell, CA Chapter, competing in speech competitions and raising and showing animals, receiving 2 blue ribbons…I raised three pigs, a lamb, two turkeys and shared a steer with a fellow FFA member!
One of my greatest memories when I was younger was attending science camp. Remembering how much joy it brought me singing songs and learning about the earth around me fascinated me and I am so excited to be given the opportunity to share that same joy with other children.
I have my Camp Director certification from the American Camp Association, and earned my Child Development teaching certificate from SRJC. I started this new direction in my career because of my daughter, Violet. The day she was born, a love for children bloomed that I had never realized I had before her arrival. I started taking Child Development classes to ensure that I am doing everything I can to become the best mother possible. In doing so, I realized I have a talent for teaching and a passion for guiding new sprouting minds! Working for Mixed Greens and Camp Ever Greens, I am given an opportunity to extend my knowledge of development and nurturing to benefit other children as well as my own. I am so excited to get to know all of these wonderful children and their families!
Organic Gardening Teacher: Erin Shea
My name is Erin Shea and I am so excited to be a member of the Mixed Greens staff as the Garden Teacher! After majoring in Environmental Studies with an emphasis on Sustainable Agriculture at UC Santa Cruz, I traveled to Europe and Central America and came back to Sonoma County and got a job in the insurance industry. Not quite what I had envisioned for myself! Luckily, I eventually found myself starting my own small-scale organic vegetable farm in Healdsburg, mostly learning on the spot. After several years farming there, I made the move to a larger piece of land in Santa Rosa and established a non-profit educational program, teaching kids about sustainable agriculture and healthy eating through hands- on activities. Around this time, the first of my two daughters began attending Mixed Greens Preschool. The farm eventually shut down, and my two girls graduated and moved on to Elementary School, but our connection with Heather and Mixed Greens remained, as did my passion for growing food and sharing my knowledge with others. To be a part of the establishment of the second location of Mixed Greens is an honor, and I am looking forward to all of the exploration and learning to come in the garden!
Atelierista (Art Teacher): Emily Page Ruiz
Hello, My name is Emily and I'm so happy to be a part of this program! I have been working with children for about 9 years and have a Child Development Associate Teacher Certificate from the SRJC and hope to continue my education in child development. While in school, I worked in the SHAPE (School and Home Autism Program through Education) program with SCOE for three years, and was also an assistant teacher in the preschools there for about 4 years. I am excited to help guide children through their own learning and creative process and to facilitate social and emotional growth. While I'm home with my three year old, we love to paint and go on lots of walks, especially if there are puddles!
My interest in child development began when my cousin was diagnosed with autism when I was 5 years old. Our connection guided me towards learning more about special needs and child development. While working with special needs preschool children I was able to have an art corner and my two passions of art and child development collided! For the past couple years I have stayed home with my son and have been able to teach art classes to children and parents in the community, as well as work on my own art. I can't wait to learn more from the children, families, and teachers here, and share some of my passions with everyone as well!
Environmental Teacher: Cam West
Hello! My name is Cam and I am so excited to be a part of Mixed Greens and the positive impact that it is bringing on our community! My passion for working with children stems from my own past and upbringing, growing up in a big family where every day was taught to be an adventure, there was never a dull moment. My parents encouraged all of us to learn with our hands, interact with nature, and explore the beauty in all cultures, languages and ethnicities. To this day, I watch them help any child in need and I strive to follow their glowing example. I am currently working towards my Child Development degree through Theoria College.
I enjoy the privilege of assisting children in therapeutic horseback riding, and love introducing Mixed Greens kids to animals right in our own backyard. I believe the connection between child and animal plays a vital role in their emotional development as well as building up a sense or responsibility and trust. Another passion I have is teaching music. Music is the universal language in which anyone including children can express themselves in any language or even without having to speak a word. Seeing a child really 'feel' music is one of the most rewarding things anyone could ever experience. When I am not outdoors you can bet I am thinking about when I can be outdoors again! We live in a very high-tech world so helping a child find the magic within nature is even more so important to me! A few other activities I love teaching and sharing are Archery, Loom crafting, Farm maintenance, and Swedish/Spanish/Vietnamese language learning. I am so happy to be a part of such an inspirational school and team who's goals match my own!
Teacher: Giselle Vigil
Hello! My name is Giselle Vigil I am so happy to have the opportunity to be a part of such an amazing group here at Mixed Greens. I was raised in California's central valley and moved over to Sonoma county when I married my lovely husband. I am fluent in English, Spanish, and American Sign Language.
I started my career with children at the age of 16. I began working for a non-profit organization that offered after school tutoring and mentoring to children ages 5-17, since then I have worked in elementary schools, high schools, and as a nanny. It wasn't until I was a sophomore in college that I decided to switch my major from Pre-Nursing to Early Childhood Education, I now have my Associates in Arts in Early Childhood Education and my certificate in Early Childhood Education Associate Teacher.
As a part of the Mixed Greens team I want to help children learn, explore, and grow into curious individuals. My goal is to create an environment that makes the children feel safe and loved. I am so excited to see what Mixed Greens has in store for me, let the adventure begin!
Teacher: J.J. Johnson
My name is J.J. and I am incredibly grateful to be a part of the Mixed Greens community! My love for working with children began in high school, when I started teaching dance classes to some aspiring ballerinas who, little did they know, were really the ones inspiring me. Motivated to continue down the path of teaching, I found myself in the Early Childhood Studies program at Sonoma State University. I was quickly drawn to the professional field of Early Childhood, and am continually inspired by the individuals who make up this valuable community. Working in various classrooms throughout my time at SSU allowed my appreciation and passion to grow even more. After receiving my Bachelors in Early Childhood Studies in 2017, I spent a year teaching at My Gym Children's Fitness Center here in Santa Rosa. I loved being able to help provide a place where children and families could play, learn, and grow together. I believe the value of play should take an active role in children's learning and that education should emerge from children's own interests.
When being introduced to Mixed Greens, I immediately knew I had found a community that shares my values and beliefs. It is important to me to create an environment where every child feels safe and supported. I believe it is only then that we can teach the whole child and help shape them to be life long learners. It is with so much joy that I get to be here at Mixed Greens and I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful family!
Teacher: Rosa Grant
Hi, my name is Rosa and I have taught in the educational field for 20 years. I have my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education with a Special Education emphasis. I have completed most of my MA course work in Early Education / Special Education in Moderate / Severe. I have worked as a babysitter, nanny, Aide in Special Education classroom, Todddler Teacher for 9 years and Infant Teacher for 3 years at the SRJC Children's Center and the last two years as a preschool teacher and substitute. I am so happy to join Mixed Greens, as I really feel it is a good match with all it has to offer, in line with my views on education for children, where extended play is utilized as the best kind of learning, where creative and artistic endeavors are encouraged and scaffolded, and where outdoors and the environment are a priority!
In my personal life, I love traveling, road trips, and any body of water, but especially the ocean as I grew up right by the beach and it is just home for me. I enjoy walks, parks, music and concerts, and outings as a family. I love animals of all kinds! I am creative, love reading, love dancing and trying to acquire new languages! I speak some Spanish.
Our little family has a Siamese cat named Sassy and three fish: Itsy Bitsy glow fish, Big Fat fish and NimNim the Beta. My children: Miari 4, and Micah 3, my bonus children Killian 15, and Lukah 18, and Dad Rico Johan and myself make up our family. I am excited to get to know you and yours!
Substitute Teacher: Courtney Hunter
Hi everyone, I'm Courtney Hunter, and I'm very excited to join the staff over here at Mixed Greens! I've been working with kids for the past 15 years as a preschool teacher, nanny, summer camp counselor, and field trip teacher. In 2008 I received my AA in Child Development at the SRJC right here in Sonoma County where I was born and raised.
Being a part of a young child's learning experience is an incredible gift and learning lesson for all involved! Taking time to slow down and explore our curiosity about the natural world, figure out how things work and experiment with creative expression through art/movement/music/building/language are things that I love to encourage in children at any age (including us "grown ups")!
Besides teaching, some of my other passions include gardening, creating visual art + music, traveling as much of the globe as possible, and volunteering in my community. I look forward to meeting you all and continuing this learning journey together!
Substitute Teacher: Cara Viripaeff Baum
Hi, My name is Cara Viripaeff Baum. I am overjoyed to be a part of the Mixed Greens Family! I earned my Early Childhood Education credits at City College in San Francisco while working on my BA in Pyschology at USF, eventually completing my Masters in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from SFSU and Multiple Subjects Clear Credential through SJSU. I have worked as a therapist for Early Intervention and taught kids and adults: preschool, k-8, high school, college, university, and adult-ed, in addition to all sorts of other fun stuff including being a nanny, camp counselor, mom, and step-mom.
I found Mixed Greens while looking for an amazing preschool for our daughter. As a mom of a micro-preemie, well versed in sensory and neuro needs, I was thrilled to find a Reggio Emilia inspired school with a philosophy based on experiential, social learning in a green environment that provides children lots of space to play, explore, and get dirty. I hope to bring my passion for early childhood education with an understanding of RIE, multi-cultural, and mindful classroom philosophies. I also speak Spanish and in my free time you can find me on the trails as a volunteer bilingual docent with Landpaths or exploring fun places to play with our three kids, friends, and family!

After living in New York and spending time abroad, I'm back in Sonoma County and excited to start this journey with your little ones at Mixed Greens!
I speak Portuguese and Spanish, I have a very curious toddler (who is also a Mixed Greener), and when I have a free moment, I'm usually experimenting in the kitchen.
