I am an experienced IT Professional and Design Technologist with a deep commitment to social impact. During my 14 years in higher education, I developed a career that merged creative problem-solving with technical innovation to build tools that empower students to achieve their full potential.
Recently, I’ve transitioned to clean energy advocacy, where I serve as the Director of Technology at Solar United Neighbors. Here, I leverage my expertise to advance the organization’s mission of creating a cleaner, more equitable, and resilient energy future. In this role, I’m responsible for driving technology strategies to optimize the organization’s capacity and operational efficiency.
Outside this work, I’m applying these and other skills to creative research and commercial projects. Recently, I founded For Grownups, a startup designing modern solutions that tackle emerging problems within the cannabis industry. Last spring, For Grownups participated in the 8th Cohort of Communitas Ventures Accelerator.
I’m guided by a belief that design should be an inclusive and culturally rich experience, equally informed and enhanced by its end users. My practice is concerned with the process of co-creating such ecosystems to be fair, performant and a joy to use.
