I am a professional with 10+ years of experience working at the intersection of creative thinking, public systems, and social impact strategy.
I closed Socially Immersed to focus on The Samaritan Project, where we pilot innovative solutions that help public systems work more effectively. The heart of my work is designing programs and figuring out what is needed to get them done in a sustainable manner (for both the populations served and the teams carrying them out).
I’ve worked with nonprofits, founders, government agencies, and institutions to solve complex challenges beyond current reactive models.
Ways We Can Work Together
Rapid Strategy Session (90 min/ 4hr/ 8hr)
A focused advisory session for founders, nonprofits, and institutions navigating program design, systems challenges, or growth decisions. Together we clarify priorities, identify structural gaps, and outline practical next steps.
Sessions scheduled with less than three business days’ notice are subject to a rush fee.
Systems Audit & Action Plan (Flat Rate)

Strategic Execution Retainer (Starting at $3k/mo, 3 month min)
For organizations that need ongoing systems thinking and strategic support while implementing major initiatives. Retainer partners receive continued advisory guidance, strategic review, and execution support across program design, systems development, and organizational decision-making.

I created a free online school during COVID, hosting sessions focused on various careers for ages 8-18. I brought in individuals who were laid off to teach virtually in a hands-on approach.
I produced a show with a film department called Cook and Consider. The concept uses food to engage strangers in conversations about deeper topics and encourage critical thinking.
I created a physical product called The Project Guru Planner. The planner was developed after donating over 300 consulting hours to small founders operating with budgets under $50K, helping them better organize ideas, strategy, and execution.
Curiosity led me to explore how I could assist a town suffering from a lack of clean water. I formed a team, and together we volunteered over 1,000 hours working to combat corruption, build partnerships, and pursue justice.
I received the Presidential Service Award from President Obama.
I was a State Commissioner for Volunteer Services at 15.
I became a first generation college graduate at age 20.
I taught 3rd-5th graders a social justice curriculum, and it led to a music video.
I created a pop-up Coffee Museum designed to explore the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Check out a recap of the discoveries here.
I created "A Seat at the Table," an immersive performance project exploring community experiences through interactive storytelling, facilitated interaction, and shared meals.
I launched a Scrap Kitchen that kept methane out of landfills by turning produce surplus, or “waste,” into nutritious upcycled meals for fire survivors.
