The arc

I didn't choose one field.
I chose the space between all of them.

Product engineering at a water startup. Epidemiology at Johns Hopkins. Innovation and sustainability programs at Carnegie Mellon Qatar. Field research across Bangladesh, India, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, DRC, and Rwanda. I've raised funding, managed large teams, and built systems from scratch in places where there was no playbook.

What drives me

I like to work on the world's most pressing problems — through research, engineering, and program strategy. The kind of work that requires holding the whole picture while still executing. Where the data needs to become a decision, and where something needs to be built that doesn't exist yet.

The ocean is where my love for nature and climate began. Everything flows from that — the urgency, the care, the reason none of this work can wait.
