My affection and curiosity for people, places, and thoughtful (aka sustainable) design have led me to San Francisco,

In Presidio Graduate School's MBA program, I made my focus urban sustainability and began reaching into community activation and urban agriculture extracurriculars with creative folks in the city, which is what I can be found doing most nights of the week now. I thrive when learning, experimenting and building friendships that blend together to positively impact the city.

The drive to embed myself in urban communities was seeded in my roots in the suburbs of South Florida, maturing through the branches I've stretched across the globe. I've had the good fortune to delve into humanistic studies and languages at McGill University in Montreal and then get hands-on with fashion design and pattern making in London. Curiousity to experience new culture and take on new challenges led to a year of teaching conversational English in Saitama, Japan, where I helped students express their opinions and creativity through the avenue that foreign language can afford.

My mission is to enhance urban lifestyles for city dwellers in terms of human connection, cultural diversity and wellbeing. This has taken form in green roof alliance building, activation projects and sharing economy pollination. Now, it's all about women. Stay tuned for updates on a new social club and learning center for women.
