Beyond the cleanroom, I am the founder of Tech Tales of the Valley, a workforce development initiative that has reached students in Title I schools across Arizona. My mission is to bridge the gap between boardroom strategy and the reality of the \"engineer in the bunny suit,\" fostering a culture where empathy and authenticity are seen as technical strengths.

Strategic Leadership: Primary Nikon representative on the Arizona Semiconductor Taskforce and Board Member at West-MEC.
