Co-founder
Sep 2020 — Present
As Co-Founder of GovEmpower, I help small and mid-sized local governments apply human-centered design, service design, and user experience principles to strengthen public trust and improve service delivery. Our work reimagines how municipalities engage residents, design programs, and deliver equitable outcomes—whether through housing initiatives, permitting reforms, or community engagement strategies. At its core, GovEmpower exists to make local government more inclusive, responsive, and empowering for the people it serves.
