Richard

Richard Seymour has been working with nonprofits for over forty years. In 2000 he helped found Free Geek, the Oregon organization that refurbishes and recycles discarded computers in order to provide nonprofits and volunteers with free computers. After a sixteen year stint at Free Geek, he started Mahonia Consulting to provide organization development, strategic planning, and interim director services to a variety of community groups in Portland. 

From 2018 until recently, he served as Finance Director and then Chief Finance Officer to Bradley Angle, an organization founded in 1975 to serve survivors of domestic violence.

After leaving Bradley Angle in 2026, Richard established Handsome Fluke Advising. Richard is looking for struggling nonprofits that need a helping hand.

Richard spends his free time in the garden and working on an epic fantasy novel that may never get published.

Fluke 

After surviving the global pandemic, Richard brought Fluke, a hundred pound Rottweiler-Boxer-Labrador mixed breed dog, into the venture. Many people think Fluke is a Rhodesian Ridgeback, the fierce African dog bred to chase away lions. In fact, according to a DNA test, he is 1% Ridgeback, and there have been no lions in the neighborhood since he came onboard.

Fluke serves as the organization's Chief Outreach Officer and overall supervisor of goofiness. His main job is to keep everyone happy by being happy himself.

Fluke likes diving into the river, rolling the grass, and surveying the neighborhood for the perfect spot to bury bones. He also enjoys spending time with the neighborhood dogs in the Lents neighborhood of east Portland, and jumping up to give whoever he meets to sloppy kiss on the nose.
