With over a decade of experience in the arts, education, and environmental sectors, I specialize in designing and managing interdisciplinary projects that merge creativity with community impact. My work includes leading grant-funded programs, developing arts curricula, and directing public initiatives that align cultural production with equity and accessibility goals. I bring a proven track record of project management, grant strategy, and creative direction to every collaboration.
