She is a cultural strategist, founder, and community architect with more than two decades of experience across education, community development, and economic opportunity. She works at the intersection of culture, business, and systems change.

She began her work inside public systems, managing extended learning programs across Boston Public Schools and later directing a $6 million U.S. Department of Education Promise Neighborhoods initiative through the Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative to create a cradle-to-career support system in Boston. At the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce, she advanced regional strategies focused on racial equity, economic mobility, and positioning Boston as a place where diverse talent can thrive. Earlier in her career, she worked in communications and policy advocacy, supporting national efforts to expand access to afterschool and summer learning opportunities.

That foundation — rooted in education, community organizing, and economic mobility — informs the work she leads today.
