About
I’m a lawyer turned writer, strategist, and recruiter with a passion for helping people access opportunities and for telling stories that drive impact. My career spans law, journalism, legal recruiting, and nonprofit communications—all connected by a focus on equity, voice, and community.
I thrive at the intersection of policy and storytelling, whether advising on complex issues, guiding talent into meaningful roles, or crafting narratives that advance justice and belonging. I’m energized by collaboration, creative problem-solving, and building pathways for others to succeed.
