The brilliance, creativity, and courageous activism in the world keep me moving forward.
My work has taken me from public health research in Senegal to leading million-dollar fundraising programs to producing events atop a Californian mountain and inside a 500 year-old Welsh barn. Every experience teaches me something new about storytelling, assembling a coalition, systems thinking, and belief-building—all essential for accelerating the success of enterprising ideas and people (my chosen mission in this life).
My curiosity for complex systems developed while studying pre-medicine, African American Studies, and public health. Across my studies and work, I’ve seen how health and education systems, business, and capitalist values have historically left many behind. I’ve come to understand that the interconnectedness of these systems require collaboration across fields and steadfast optimism for how life can be improved. Knowing this, I continually seek to join those actively contributing to a better future for more people.
My deep joy for people, art, design, culture, technology, and business keeps me inspired and energized.
Whether with a large institution, a small-business entrepreneur, or an independent artist, I adore manifesting ideas.
