With over four years as Commissioner at the Port of Seattle and now directing strategic initiatives for the City of Seattle, my journey has been marked by dedication to economic development and public service. At the forefront of maritime economics, my role at the port has been instrumental in fostering trade and sustainability. Now, with the Mayor's office, I align our city's vision with actionable strategies that will activate downtown and empower communities. My mission is to harness my expertise in public administration to generate social impact, a goal reflected in my latest venture: a socially conscious bubble tea and dessert shop--Social Tea Company.
