Experience
Co-founding Executive Director
Sep 2021 — Present · Washington, DC, US
Unlock Aid is a coalition backed by nearly 200 organizations that is rebuilding our public institutions for the 21st century, starting with U.S. foreign policy and global development. We do this by taking on monopolies in government contracting and driving pro-innovation, pro-results policy reforms to increase access to public resources. We’ve unlocked $300 million for social innovators, changed procurement rules to cut red tape, increased federal innovation spending, and created moonshot initiatives to increase food security and health access.
