Advocate. Storyteller.
I'm a Community Land Trust practitioner focused on building systems that provide social, environmental, and economic justice. I believe in the power of CLT's to beautifully re-imagine how we create wealth, use land, and provide stable housing. That's why I'm so proud I get to spend my days working to grow and steward a CLT on San Juan Island, Washington.
My career has provided a variety of experience in project and program management, communications, research, complex problem solving, and policy-related work. I'm known as an adaptable critical thinker with high level analytical skills and the ability to think in systems, collaborate widely, work independently, and meet deadlines while maintaining a strong attention to detail. My biggest skillsets are my written & verbal communication abilities.
I’ve been interested in "changing things" since I was a kid, and, as I grew older, I spent a bunch of time learning about history, economics, statistics, public policy, and social movement theory…mostly with a library card and an internet connection. Ultimately, I earned a bachelor's degree with a dual focus on Public Policy & Economics, and minor in Digital Communication. I’m interested in finding ways to build up our communities in the midst of the systems that are trying to break them down, and address how our past is still rippling out today–in order to build a better, safer, more dignified and more just future for all.
