The Story Behind The Strategy

I’ve always been someone who builds systems, strategies, and language that help people and organizations move with purpose. To me, communication is infrastructure. It carries power, fosters trust, and shapes how we grow..

My work is at the forefront of change. I’ve crafted language that supported San Francisco’s trauma-informed care initiatives, redefined health systems amid a global pandemic, and assisted 1,000 employees in adopting a new operational model at a health-tech startup. I’ve developed communication frameworks during periods of rapid expansion, simplifying engineering complexity into clear messages and aiding CIOs and executive teams in moments demanding both decisiveness and empathy.

My words have resonated on stages such as TED AI and the UN COP climate summit. They’ve opened conferences, introduced the former President of the United States, and quietly supported some of the most critical equity initiatives of our era. I utilize communication to craft spaces where trust can flow, particularly when systems seem heavy, fragmented, or in need of urgent change.

At Gridware, I helped reimagine how AI and micrometeorology could be shared as a public good, a work that gained recognition from TIME, Forbes, and Grist. Through Human Impact Solutions, I’ve advised organizations like the Golden State Warriors, FEMA, and W.K. Kellogg Foundation—helping turn community needs into compelling narratives. I am proud to have co-founded the Stay Ready Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting culturally responsive disaster preparedness for thousands of residents across California.

My background in Social Work and Public Health continues to influence my leadership style. I am currently preparing for the PMP and LSAT, expanding my focus on governance, ethics, and decision-making frameworks that facilitate effective communication in complex, high-pressure environments. I support professionals through my framework, The Gray Area, which guides those facing transitions, such as switching careers, experiencing burnout, or quietly realizing that something no longer suits them. I assist clients with clarity exercises, alignment strategies, and strategic adjustments, empowering them to move forward with confidence.

Ultimately, my career has focused on creating ecosystems where people feel seen, valued, and empowered to take action. Communication is the vehicle. Sometimes, a miracle is simply meeting someone who provides the right words at the right moment. I’ve built a life around being that person.
