About

I am a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley in 2023, specializing in cultural analyses of structural injustice. I have 10+ years of experience leading research projects and teams, managing cultural programs, and coordinating public facing events in collaboration with communities, activists, and global organizations like UNESCO. I create data-driven storytelling that unsettles the status quo, amplifies marginalized knowledges, and supports informed decision making via innovation and thought leadership.

Monitored, evaluated student engagement, learning, and yielded a 100% success.
