-: My name is Tamara Wilkerson Dise,
and I'm the executive director of a nonprofit
called African American Teaching Fellows.
So I think it depends on what type
of nonprofit you're looking to go into.
If you're going into a arts nonprofit,
maybe you've had experience three or four years
teaching the arts or working in the arts,
and then have decided to transition.
It's one of those roles that I think you can learn,
as long as you're willing to learn,
but it's very much, you hit the ground at 100 miles per hour
the minute you start.
And you really have to be a fast learner
and being willing to pick up those skills.
