A bit about me:

I care lots about cultivating equitable societies and media ecosystems, while paying heed to cultural context and having digital fUn. In other words, I'm an online community nerd who wrote my first html for my Neopets store and curated four tumblrs for each of my high school alter egos. (◕‿◕✿) 

I'm currently building brand and editorial operations at NewtonX, a $32M Series B B2B research company. I consult on creative and narrative strategy through Skin Contact. (Working with everyone from the Fortune 500 to indie studios to Michelin hospitality leaders. Big love to partners Oyster Sunday, GIRGOOD WORX, and Another.) 

What I do: define the messy threads of a company's why, articulate it, and communicate it. Or: speak poetry to technology; refine zeal with grace.

I develop editorial vision and interactive projects through Currant, my global food media collective. Here I get to dream and scheme with the most brilliant team on paving a better food future. On the side, I moonlight as a photojournalist, fueled by the applied liberal arts education—or, extreme sport—that is living in New York City. I'd love to edit an anthology one day.

Oh, and cheers to MAEKAN and Tiny Factories! Two of the communities that first fueled my creative being.

Prior to this, I studied Finance and International Business at Georgetown University. My internships spanned UX design at SaaS company Meltwater and digital strategy under the 19th/21st U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy. I spoke on US-China relations, started and dropped a theology minor, studied culinary culture at Noma's research lab in Copenhagen (now closed, rip), and made Stumptown pourovers at a cafe in D.C. The takeaway? Turn down the volume of the noise; turn up the volume of the heart.
