She also works in international development with the Skees Family Foundation, whose mission is to achieve global equality and prosperity through entrepreneurial/vocational training and jobs. Skees studied English literature at Boston College and world religions at Harvard Divinity School. She travels from schools to slums, prisons to farms, serving as a storyteller for nonprofit workers, social entrepreneurs, and their courageous clients, who toil every day to create equality and end poverty. She lives on California's Central Coast.
