.I am a creative director and social entrepreneur with 20 years of leadership in brand innovation and media creation. I have developed award-winning, global-scale works for world-leading brands and platforms. My commercial expertise lies in planning and producing purpose-led campaigns, rooted in a belief that conversion starts with inspiration.In 2017 I decided it was time for me to stopborrowing equity and start building it --So, I founded an innovative youth NGO in Cambodia:Minor Act (www.minoract.org) engages young people from vulnerable communities in participatory filmmaking and transformative grassroots media ventures.Our work focuses on human rights, cultural identity, social justice, youth power, and the necessary beautyof that freedom called expression. I studied Media / Art and Philosophy at Brown University. Before that, I worked as a nursing aide in Alzheimer’s clinics serving older, impoverished populations in rural America. Perhaps that is where my deeper vision was first forged:I have a strong beliefin the humanity of imagination, the rarity of real ideas, and the privilege of taking action,raising voices that should be heard.
