about me:
I'm a returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Morocco), had the honor of interviewing President Barack Obama for an advocacy film, and I directed a documentary feature FRONTRUNNER, about the first and only woman to run for President of Afghanistan. I’m a mom of an amazing 11-year-old boy. I also like blasting 80’s pop when nobody’s listening.
Bio
Thank you for visiting!
Currently my working home is as staff Technical Advisor in Social and Behavior Change (SBC) with Catholic Relief Services (CRS), a wonderful organization dedicated to the empowering the most vulnerable in the world to create change in their communities. Although I’m not consulting any longer, I’m always happy to chat about best practices in the field and opportunities to collaborate and create change together.
