At CSSP
I oversee internal and external communications strategy, with the goal of making sure our mission, messages, and resources are as well-known, widespread, and broadly used as possible.
I do this work because
I believe in the fundamental good of all people, and especially in supporting children and youth so that they have everything they need to become whoever they want to be in life.
I am most proud of
Creating large-scale social good campaigns that are both creative and drive community change.

When the day is done
I love to hang out with my family, read as much about Tudor England as I can, and indulge in my guilty pleasure of binge-watching any and every reality TV show I can find.
