For the past 10 years, I’ve worked at the intersection of housing, leadership, and systems change— blending real-world practice, global storytelling, and leadership empowerment to help audiences navigate complexity and lead with clarity.

From city halls to construction sites, from universities to the United Nations, I translate big systems into human stories — and stories into action.
