I believe there is significant opportunity to improve how the built environment is constructed, financed, and operated. I am excited to apply an interdisciplinary approach to that knotty problem, utilizing my diverse professional and educational background as a foundation for innovative thinking and empathetic action.
I am a 2024 Masters of Real Estate Development graduate from Columbia University, and alumni of Olin College with a Bachelors of Engineering in Sustainable Systems. I cut my teeth professionally as a consultant at Deloitte, and then built two new business arms at simplehuman. I first co-created their sustainability program, and then worked closely with the Founder / CEO to develop their built environment research lab. It was there I realized I want to create a career in the built environment and saw how much I could learn, driving me back to graduate school and on to Freshwater.
I hope to help improve the way we create places for people to work, live, and play in harmony with each other and nature. I love to be outside and cook great food, and relish in the fact that some think of me as a good storyteller.
