About

I am an impact-driven and results-oriented environmental professional with extensive experience in grant development, strategic communications, and stakeholder engagement. I have successfully managed federal and nonprofit projects, delivering effective proposals and communications that drive measurable social and environmental impact. With a solid background in advanced ecological research and business development, I excel at translating technical data and policy requirements into actionable funding strategies that support climate change mitigation and sustainable community development initiatives. I partner effectively with government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and community stakeholders to secure public funding, shape policy, and deliver projects that promote resilient, equitable environmental solutions.
