I advance strategic investments that improve educational outcomes and expand economic opportunity across Houston.With a background spanning PK–12 education leadership, nonprofit strategy, and real estate development, I bring a systems-level understanding of how to design, fund, and scale solutions that drive lasting change. My strength lies in aligning diverse stakeholders, ranging from school districts and postsecondary institutions to civic leaders and foundations, around shared goals, measurable outcomes, and community benefit.I believe meaningful change happens through thoughtful collaboration, innovative thinking, and disciplined execution. Whether shaping strategic priorities, managing high-impact investments, or supporting cross-sector partnerships, I focus on building trust, advancing equity, and delivering results that matter for our region’s future.
