I have over 15 years of experience implementing creative solutions to help address some of the most pressing issues in urban planning, placemaking, and non-profit development. My experience reflects a fundamental belief in the importance of good civic engagement in creating a more just and equal world.

I have experience as a founder, funder, executive, and capacity builder across various industries, including education and research, arts access and advocacy, nonprofit management, local government, urban planning and design, sustainability, and economic development. These diverse experiences have equipped me with a broad understanding of urban issues and a deep belief in the power of multi-sector coalitions that spark innovation and demand change. I believe that all cities offer antidotes and lessons to combat some of today’s most pressing urban challenges. 

I believe we all have the power to shape a better, more joyful future for our communities. If you do too, let’s work together!
