Founder | Digital Product Builder

I’m a social entrepreneur and digital product builder. I’m the founder and CEO of CivicReach - a startup and mission to leverage voice AI to make local government radically better at providing for everyone.

My mission is to build great big things that serve the builders, the users, communities, and society. I care about building (and helping others build) tech that brings more equity, access, and dignity.
