About
I am a strategic operations and public health leader with 15+ years of experience helping mission-driven organizations translate complex goals into actionable, equity-centered strategies. My work spans a Fortune 500 corporate environment, federal agencies, and academic institutions, where I have led cross-functional initiatives focused on access, engagement, performance improvement, and long-term social impact.
Throughout my career, I have specialized in operating at the intersection of strategy, execution, and equity -- designing operating models, governance structures, and measurement frameworks that align organizational priorities with community needs. I am known for synthesizing data, policy constraints, and stakeholder perspectives into clear recommendations that leaders can fund, launch, and scale.
A throughline across my work is a systems-level question: How do the environments we design -- organizational, social, and physical -- shape people’s ability to thrive? This perspective also informs a broader interest in how physical environments can support focus, belonging, and well-being, complementing my work in organizational and community contexts.
My leadership style is values-driven and relational, grounded in empathy, thoughtful problem-solving, and practical execution. I bring clarity to complexity, amplify overlooked perspectives, and help organizations move from intention to impact.
