Profile

I am a designer, technician, and artist—a careful steward of communication and signal. I have a passion for delivering fine service and have built a career designing and executing premier events alongside teams who center the marginalized, advocate for the voiceless, and work to build a world that is brighter, more caring, and more connected. A renaissance thinker driven by deep curiosity, I’ve cultivated expertise across disciplines and built frameworks that enable persistence under pressure and moral leadership in complex circumstances.
