Advancing AI for impact.

Public service
at heart.

Curiosity driven.

I spent the last few years in government—first as a Senior Advisor at USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance then as Deputy Chief of Staff to the Deputy Secretary of Defense. Before that, I was at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), where I focused on migration, conflict, climate change, and how technology is reshaping these global challenges. I still hold an affiliation with CSIS's Futures Lab which embraces data science, AI/ML, and alternative analysis to revolutionize policy-driven research.

​

I've worked in conflict zones across Iraq, Afghanistan, South Sudan, and Ethiopia, spent time on multiple presidential campaigns, and taught graduate students about global fragility at Syracuse's Maxwell School.

I proudly serve on the board of the Andi Leadership Institute for Young Women.

Oh, and I co-founded a coffee company.
