Leadership

As an educator, I have developed programs and courses, created and curated content, and facilitated workshops, both remote and in-person on participatory design, prototyping, and leadership development, with a strong focus on BIPOC and underrepresented audiences. My background in humanities, photography, and journalism has led me to use writing as a form of activism, reflection, and connection. I write and speak on several topics, such as inclusive design and diversity and equity in the workplace.
