Editor and Writer
She/Her/Hers

At BUILD I…

draft and/or edit BUILD communication pieces including briefs, executive summaries, reports, proposals, write and co-write blogs, interview leaders in the field to inform various written materials, and participate as a member of BUILD’s Communications Team and Operations Team.

An aspect of my work that excites me…

is the opportunity to continually sharpen both my understanding of race equity issues and my ability to effectively represent them in writing.
