About Me

⚡

I'm a systems strategist with 15+ years of cross-sector experience spanning healthcare, behavioral health, civic policy, and community-led innovation. My expertise includes AI training, software development, and building inclusive, community-focused platforms.

I've contributed to AI product development through UX research, beta testing, and direct collaboration with major tech companies—including an invitation to Meta's headquarters in 2019. Today, my work centers on developing applications that address real community needs, with a strong focus on ethical innovation, thorough testing, and accessibility—especially for vulnerable and historically underserved populations.

Based in: Portland, Oregon
