At the heart of my professional drive is the mission to foster sustainable, equitable communities through strategic policy advocacy and development. Currently serving as Program Director of Housing Development and Planning at Community Development Long Island, my focus is on leveraging grant funding and innovative public policy to create models of sustainable development that serve as a beacon for wider change. My role on the Board of Directors at Seatuck Environmental Association complements this passion, where I contribute to conserving Long Island's natural habitats through policy and community engagement. The skills honed over 7.5 years as the founder of We Sign On—orchestrating a significant climate advocacy movement as a personal hobby—inform my current efforts to ensure our actions today cultivate a resilient tomorrow.
