I’m a communications specialist helping mission-driven organizations advance digital innovation for social impact.
In my 10+ years of working in global development, I’ve learned that placing people at the center of our processes, policies, and products leads to solutions that empower the communities they are designed to serve.
This belief has led me to scale a nonprofit across the Asia-Pacific region, support citizen-led digital activism, and help organizations communicate complex ideas in ways that are accessible and action-oriented.
Today, my work sits at the intersection of digital technology, communications, and design, where I’m particularly interested in how emerging tech like AI can support (not replace) the human experience.
I’ve led global teams of staff and youth volunteers in advocating human dignity and human rights and in supporting ordinary citizens to create the change they want to see through technology and capacity-building.
My areas of responsibility have covered global and regional vision, strategy, impact and learning, organizational development, and culture.
My background in advertising, communications, and design has propelled me towards roles that manage and collaborate with a global network of creatives in developing communication strategies, designing visual branding and identity systems, and writing compelling content for a variety of audiences around the world.
As a multimedia specialist, I have worked on strategy development, brand-building, creative direction, and content development (writing, copyediting, and visual design).

My expertise in this area stemmed from managing and facilitating grassroots-focused intensive programs. In my previous capacity, I’ve trained 300+ individuals from Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, USA, and Vietnam.
More recently, I’ve set the groundwork for bringing an onsite, high-touch program online. My areas of responsibility have covered editing module content, auditing user experience and design, and setting up systems and processes for bringing the curriculum to an online learning management system.
As a way of life, I like to keep an open mind. My constant curiosity feed into my work, allowing me to lead with empathy and to create projects that impress, inspire, influence, and provoke.
Most importantly, I work best when I’m having fun 🙂
