Bio
Andrew Vought
Torin is amazing at conception and execution of programs. One week ago the Los Angeles State Historic Park held a spectacular Grand Opening. It was a huge success. Why? Because Torin stepped forward to organize and lead the volunteer army needed for this event on a volunteer basis. In less than two weeks he mobilized, organized, and deployed over 100 volunteers to run a complicated event -- from a standing stop. No drama, just perfect follow through. It's a joy to see. My advice: if you can get Torin on your side, it's amazing what you can get accomplished!

I had the pleasure of working with Torin while he was the Director of Engagements and Partnerships at TreePeople. I was very impressed with his expert knowledge of sustainability issues and the strong partnerships he had built with his colleagues, community members and organizations active in the greater Los Angeles area. Torin is self-motivated and passionate about his work, and deeply cares about finding permanent solutions to help improve the environment and the resulting socio-economic problems. Torin is a terrific team player and will be a valuable contributor to any organization with his professionalism and stellar work ethic.
