I am an interdisciplinary designer exploring the systemic and social dimensions of technology, from the stability of emerging systems to how digital growth creates interconnected networks. My work focuses on open-source communities, civic technology, and the policy frameworks that support them.

By day, I am a Legislative Research Assistant at Lewis-Burke Associates, a leading consulting firm, where my portfolio focuses on the nexus of emerging technology across industries, including national security and the environment.

I am also actively engaged in the tech community. I serve as a Director of Civic Tech DC, a nonprofit of technologists developing open-source tech projects. I also serve as a Fellow for the Internet Law and Policy Foundry, organizer for ACM DC, and Engagement Lead for CIB Mango Tree, an open-source initiative building tools to detect coordinated inauthentic behavior.

Outside of tech, I am equally passionate about the environment. My family and I run an organic farm for young adults with disabilities, and I serve as an Advisory Board Member for the environmental nonprofit, Alliance for Sustainability.

I graduated in 2024 with dual degrees in Environmental Science & Policy and Computer Science from Smith College. Previous roles included working with the White House, NOAA, UN, and the Senate.
