Economic Development in San Francisco Bay Area, CA

I love connecting people to places and experiences, building community, and supporting small businesses. The byproduct is thriving cities & neighborhoods that provide a sense of belonging -- creating passionate advocates and evangelists.

For nearly a decade, I put that passion to work daily as Vice President of Marketing & Chief of Staff for one of the most vibrant and dynamic areas in the country: the Flatiron neighborhood in New York City.

In 2023, I moved back to Northern California and was thrilled to join the small but mighty team at the Mid-Market Business Association & Foundation in San Francisco. Our Market Street Arts initiative serves to revitalize Mid-Market into a world-class arts & entertainment district.
