I am a community development professional seeking a job with a high-impact organization in Chicago or Boston.

I recently received a Master's in City Planning from MIT where my research was focused on affordable housing and economic development policy. My areas of interest include affordable housing and economic development planning, policy, and programs. At MIT, I conducted research with Professors Amy Glasmeier and Jeff Levine including projects related to the Living Wage Calculator, inclusive economic development, and equitable COVID-19 recovery.

In 2020, I was selected as a Harvard Kennedy School Rappaport Public Policy Fellow where I led the implementation of the Outdoor Dining Pilot at the City of Boston’s Office of Economic Development. Before coming to MIT, I led resource development for Bickerdike Redevelopment Corporation, a nonprofit affordable housing developer in Chicago and led sales and business development at NowPow, a social impact tech startup. I graduated from the University of Chicago where I studied psychology and public policy.
