My career has always been about using creativity and strategy to make a real impact. I started as a designer, crafting user-centered experiences, and over time, my passion for sustainability led me to transition into climate action. Along the way, I’ve worked across policy, research, and program design—giving me a unique perspective on tackling complex challenges. Having worked across industries, I’ve learned how to connect ideas, engage diverse stakeholders, and turn big-picture goals into action.

I hold a Master of Science in Sustainable Environmental Systems from Pratt Institute’s Graduate Center for Planning and the Environment, where I concentrated on the intersection of policy, economics, and the built environment. Prior to working on climate change mitigation, I spent nearly a decade as a visual designer and art director in New York City, shaping user experiences in nonprofits, the hospitality sector, and e-commerce startups. My background in user-centered design and creative strategy continues to shape my approach to community-centered climate solutions.
