Executive Assistant

I believe joy is a force for transformation.

My career has taken me from leading global technology and sustainability projects to co-founding startups focused on equity, climate, and social impact.

 

With a Master’s in Sustainability Management from Columbia University and a Bachelor’s in Chemical Engineering from UMass Lowell, I thrive at the intersection of strategy, innovation, and community.

 

This year, I founded Spark of Joy NYC, a grassroots microgrant initiative that supports joy-centered, creative, resident-led projects across the five boroughs. It builds on Christmas Project Joy, an annual tradition that spreads joy during the holidays to communities in Zimbabwe.

 

As a member of Advent Lutheran Church, I’ve served on several committees and volunteer regularly at our community lunch. While living in Boston, I served as a Board Member at Nuestra Comunidad, volunteered with health equity organizations, and was active at Resurrection Lutheran Church, where I worked on committees dedicated to interfaith partnerships and global mission work.

 

At my core, I’m passionate about connecting people, ideas, and resources in ways that spread joy, strengthen resilience, and build communities where everyone can thrive.
