My journey growing up within the urban landscapes of San Francisco, Brooklyn, and Seattle has shaped my understanding of how cities influence community, environment, and design. I focus on doing so while fostering my passion for human-centered design that addresses historical inequities through spatial planning.

My academic foundation has equipped me with technical design expertise and a deep appreciation for how built environments affect human behavior and social structures approach allows me to create functionally, aesthetically sound, and socially responsible solutions.

My professional journey through PR, journalism, fashion, and nonprofit work has shaped my understanding of how design impacts different communities and stakeholders. This cross-industry perspective enhances my ability to approach sustainable design challenges with strategic communication skills, systems thinking, and cultural sensitivity.
