About

Impact-driven advocate for economic and racial justice with a J.D., specialized training in conflict resolution, and a decade of direct experience in law, policy, and community organizing. As a first-generation Jamaican immigrant raised alongside tribal communities in northern Minnesota, I ground my work in lived experience with systemic inequity.

I have represented farmworkers and tenants in high-stakes proceedings, drafted federal judicial opinions on civil rights claims, and passed landmark legislation advancing school discipline reform and housing protections. Across legal clinics, federal agencies, nonprofits, and board leadership roles, I consistently link direct advocacy to systemic change through strategic coalition-building and accessible communication.

I seek roles in impact litigation, workers' rights, environmental justice, philanthropy, and social impact where I can leverage legal expertise, policy acumen, and authentic community partnerships to advance economic dignity and equitable systems change.
