I am passionate about songwriting, performing, and harnessing the cultural resonance of music to drive climate action and innovation.I currently serve as the Chief Operating Officer at Sound Future, a nonprofit organization that brings tangible climate solutions to the live event industry and makes it easy for event stakeholders to fund high-integrity nature-based restoration projects.I completed my graduate studies in Global Entertainment & Music Business at Berklee College of Music (Valencia, Spain campus) in July of 2023, graduating with distinction for my master's thesis research project assessing sustainability in music festivals and affiliated organizations in the United States.I also worked as a sustainability intern at Sziget Music Festival, where I assisted with establishing data protocols for measuring the festival's footprint across primary stakeholder groups per Green Deal Circular Festival (GDCF) guidelines. I am also an avid musician and singer-songwriter; I have toured and performed widely across the United States and parts of Europe and Canada. I was an inaugural Sonic Guild Colorado grant recipient, a Westway Lab (Portugal) resident, and I serve as a current voting member for the Recording Academy. Outside of music, I have worked professionally in psychological research, marketing, administration, and art/design, and volunteered with numerous community organizations in outdoor recreation, food rescue, and community mentorship and advocacy.
