I research, manage, and evaluate socially innovative programs. This site is my portfolio.
Right now I work as Special Projects Coordinator for Rhiza Labs, a social venture that helps nonprofits and government agencies to turn data into action. I'm also helping Oakland Planning and Development Corporation to evaluate and improve its affordable housing development program.
Along the way I've done market research, designed websites, and managed community outreach for a number of agencies. Technology is the common thread across all my experience. In essence, I help organizations to make better decisions with data.
I grew up in Pittsburgh, which led me to pursue a B.A. in Urban Studies and Public Service at the University of Pittsburgh. Right now I'm working toward an M.S. in Public Policy and Management at Carnegie Mellon University's H. John Heinz III College. I've also completed leadership development programs with Young People For the American Way and the League of Young Voters, and soon I'll be attending the StartingBloc social innovation fellowship.
I'm interested in connecting with public servants, social innovators, and policy wonks all over. Contact me.
