About

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a degree in Ethnic Studies, which has provided me with a deep understanding of cultural dynamics and social issues. My graduate work focuses on a Masters in Sustainable Peacebuilding and a graduate certificate in Digital Arts and Culture. Both of these programs combine my interests in community building, technology, and media. My unique skill set includes event planning, systems mapping, conflict resolution, and evaluation. Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to adapt to evolving challenges and deliver results. I am dedicated to making a meaningful impact and am always seeking new opportunities to contribute to organizations and causes that align with my values. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to create positive change in our respective fields.
