I founded Community Well to offer community-building consulting services to nonprofits and public policy initiatives.I create and implement communications and development strategies so that organizations can achieve their goals for the public good. I am particularly interested in advancing programs and policies that serve the wellbeing of women, children.

I co-founded Network for Africa, which assists survivors of war and genocide in rebuilding their lives. N4A’s projects are locally led by our African partners, based on the needs of their communities – as expressed by the community, not by outsiders. While we have offered some short-term assistance in refugee camps elsewhere in Africa, our main projects.

As COO, I led UStrive's development, go-to-market, and operational functions. This included:- Closing deals with businesses and with community organizations, including $1M+ multiyear partnerships with major companies. This reflects UStrive’s commitment, largely unparalleled in the nonprofit space, to creating a sustainable organization through generating.

As Director of Development, I increased UStrive’s number of paid corporate partnerships by more than 4x. This was the result of a more sustainable approach to nonprofit funding: generating revenue from companies who partner with us in employee engagement, customer engagement, and talent acquisition initiatives and from community organizations who use.

While studying for a master’s in international relations at the War Studies Department of King’s College London, I began a research internship with Waging Peace, a non-governmental organization that campaigns against genocide and systematic human rights abuses and seeks the full implementation of international human rights treaties. The following year.
