I’m an independent design executive and academic futurist, passionate about fostering respectful and equitable relationships across diverse contexts. My work focuses on human interactions, knowledge landscapes, global creative networks, and pushing beyond conventional creative boundaries to design outcomes that matter.
As a leader and designer, I address the challenges of late-stage capitalism by building inclusive communities as a foundation for sustainable success. In an increasingly fractured world, I develop strategies that foster meaningful connections—because strong relationships drive lasting impact.
Currently, I’m leading research and development efforts on a groundbreaking curriculum that explores the potential of relational and affective mechanics in shaping AI’s present influence. Through this work, I aim to help individuals and organizations navigate technological complexities while fostering optimism, progress, and enduring societal values.
With an award-winning background, I’ve held roles in executive leadership, creative studios, higher education classrooms, and social justice movement spaces—consistently fostering innovation and inclusion in every space I engage with.
