What I'm looking for

I'm looking to advance equitable, community-centered initiatives through program coordination, public service, stakeholder collaboration, and operational improvement.

I've coordinated community-centered programs, public services, and complex events across the City of Oakland, Be The Change Consulting, Heluna Health, and Sikka Tikka Tacos. My work brings together client communication, stakeholder coordination, payments and records processing, project support, and responsive service delivery.

At Be The Change Consulting, I led multi-day conferences for 300+ participants, managed a $100,000 annual workshop and event budget, developed operating procedures, and supported inclusive training programs. I'm committed to equitable community solutions and bring Adult Mental Health First Aid training to work that strengthens relationships and services.
