Throughout my career, I have worked to drive systems change, focusing on promoting equity across various contexts and collaborating with diverse stakeholders. By combining intellectual curiosity with practical applications, I have actively sought to improve the well-being of individuals, addressing social issues including but not limited to gender, housing & homelessness, health, and racial equity. My approach to this work is shaped by a range of influences, including my lived experiences, insights from collaborators, wisdom from the elders, and continuous critical self-reflection on my values and beliefs.

This endeavor is driven by a growing impatience with the slow pace of progress. A desire to work not for the next grant cycle but with an eye toward answering the question “Is anyone better off?” My ultimate aim is to engage in work that promotes liberation, empowerment, and overall well-being for individuals and the communities they live in.

With a background in Community Psychology and Public Health, I leverage data for action. However, I recognize that sustainable change requires more than just data; it necessitates community building and the amplification of marginalized voices.

Driven by my passions and the call to serve our collective humanity, I embarked on this journey. I am excited to live my values through my work and I welcome the opportunity to support you in your own journey as you strive to make a tangible difference. Let’s partner!
