Tracy Sprinkle on CreativeMornings

Short bio

Aho! I'm Tracy (he/him/his). I'm a dreamer, a helper, a planner, a designer and consultant. My core values include community, creativity, connection and communication - and I'm very excited to be putting all of that together as the host of CreativeMornings Santa Fe! I've been a "Morning Person" since 2017, and in 2019 I helped fire up the Fort Worth chapter. Now I'm here in Santa Fe and proud to be hosting mornings full of inspiration, coffee, community and high-fives. Our team of organizers have worked hard to put these events together for you, and will continue to improve them as we grow. Please reach out if you're interested in volunteering

I know a lot about

Graphic Design / Creative Strategy. Being self-employed. Hiking with dogs. LEGO. RV camping. Western boots. What it takes to run a successful CM chapter (and still learning).

I need help with

Building an awesome local chapter here in SF. Are you a great helper? Ping me and let's goooooooooo!

Best advice I've received

Show up, put in the work and give a damn.

Who do you most admire and why?

Volunteers. Those who say "yes, and". Folks who carry the load for those who can't. Those who reach back to help others come forward. And people who rescue dogs.

What's your secret superpower?

Selective hearing. Really, I am just deaf in one ear! My other superpower is organizing.

What's your backup career?

There is no going back, only forward. I have an idea for a food truck. In an alternate universe I'd probably be a park ranger. I'm also interested in ornamental welding.

What do you remember without effort?

The Greek Alphabet (song). Faces and sometimes names. Floss then brush. Check email. Say "thank you".

If you had 5 minutes to teach someone something new, what would you teach?

How to use Google Docs efficiently.
