Political Advocacy + Contemplative Practice/Peacemaking + Design/Color/Photography

• Founder of Integral Society, Communications Director, Staff Attorney, social media geek, and an artist.
• Problem solver - Every puzzle has a solution, you just have to be patient and ask the right questions.
• Change agent - I co-founded the Juvenile Death Penality Initiative which fought for end-stage clemency appeals and created strategy that led to the Supreme Court's ending the juvenile death penalty.
• Non-profit advocate and policy geek - passionate about making the world better. Focused on improving structures, relationships and building capacity.
• Fascinated by change theory - how and why people change and forgive - and the intertwined roles of spirituality, neuroplasticity and trauma treatment.
• Contemplative - I believe dialogue and Restorative Justice lead to healing, end cycles of violence and increases peace.
• Volunteer - I've volunteered with amazing, life changing organization including BARCS, B'nai Jeshurun's Overnight Shelter, City Harvest, Faith House Manhattan.

In my spare time - I am a photographer, enjoy exploring cities by bicycle, semi-obsessively catalogue photos, and study dolphin communication.
