Keep Kids Safe

We are a diverse survivor and child-centered movement engaging our communities and leaders to drive holistic federal action and systematic change to keep kids safe from sexual violence.

Our country guarantees the fundamental rights of children and adolescents to be safe from sexual violence and access to healing, prevention, and justice.

Executive Director

Brave Movement

Director of Movement-Building

I work with innovators, builders, entrepreneurs, and leaders of small-scale social impact organizations to (1) boost strategic planning, (2) develop and implement operational systems, (3) expand partnerships and fundraising channels, and (4) design MVP web applications to ship quickly.

Social Impact Consultant

Humanity Forward

Coordinated with leaders in basic income and direct cash transfers to develop innovative policy at the federal and state level. Assisted with campaigns to deliver stimulus checks and a monthly version of the bipartisan Child Tax Credit.

Dir. of Community Partnerships

Program Director

Yang2020 

I built out our statewide volunteer network by coordinating with local leaders to recruit and engage supporters organically. This dynamic approach helped us rapidly scale and adapt to shifting priorities in a "First Four" primary state.

Grassroots Director

Venture For America

I worked with the New Orleans Business Alliance as part of the VFA entrepreneurial Fellowship. During this time, I partnered with City Hall, community activists, nonprofits organizations, and business partners to improve the prison re-entry ecosystem and provide opportunities for women and men transitioning out of prison.

Fellow / Prison Re-Entry Program Director

Greenville Auto Repair

I served as the owner-operator of Greenville Auto Repair, working to expand our customer base, improve our online engagement, and streamline our inventory and purchasing.

Business Owner

MedEx Academy

I developed an immersive and award-winning medical education program for high school and collegiate students interested in pursuing a career in healthcare. Through real-world simulations, shadowing experiences, high-quality speaking series, and dependable test prep, we ensured that every participant received the best training possible at this early stage.

Program Manager

Some call me a social impact entrepreneur....I prefer Wanderer, Builder, and Storyteller.

My career has focused on launching, scaling, and leading innovative early-stage organizations (e.g. grassroots movements, startups, nonprofit organizations, social programs, political campaigns).

I have trained aspiring medical students; led grassroots operations for political campaigns at the presidential, U.S. Senate, and local levels; helped formerly incarcerated individuals launch businesses in New Orleans, trialed direct cash transfers programs, advocated to federal and state legislators on poverty reduction, and scaled movements to address childhood sexual violence.

If there is one throughline to my career, it is this: I take risks and welcome failure in the pursuit of social impact.

I have failed more times than I can count. I've missed deadlines. I've released broken MVPs. I've fallen short of KPIs. I've delivered the wrong message. I've hired the wrong person and given the wrong advice. I've failed time and again....and I couldn't be more proud of that fact. Failure means you're taking risks.

Join me, and let's make the necessary mistakes in our pursuit of social good. The world needs people to build things. I'll see you out there.
