Brooklyn-born, Brooklyn-raised superhero in training.

By day working as a Program Manager for a STEM education small business. I am dedicated to introducing young people to technology through creativity. Our students build and program LEGO robotics, design and code video games with Scratch, and direct and animate their own Stop Motion Animations.

After hours, I work to educate women and girls of color around media consuption, specifically the cost of supporting reality television shows that encourage bullying and negative competition, by developing and implementing media literacy curriculum.

I endeavor to help organizations and individuals identify and reach their potential through strategic planning and leadership development. The desire to help organizations become more efficient and more accessible to their audience and their team members fuels my fire.

Professionally, I am an advancer and would love to connect with people with innovative solutions for social issues but aren't quite sure where to start in order to bring their ideas to frution and are generally just pretty awesome.

Socially, I'm super quirky. I like comic books, action movies, fantasy series (books and television), playing softball (Go Jags!), and wandering around new places (it's how you get to experience the best a place has to offer).
