    I don’t just find solutions—I build them, uncover them, and make them happen. Where others see roadblocks, I see side doors, new angles, and untapped opportunities. If a path doesn’t exist, I’ll carve one out. With over 15 years of experience, I thrive in sustainability, public policy, and environmental science, working between strategy and execution, science and policy, macro and micro thinking. My work has spanned e-commerce, extractives, children's and educational nonprofits, Web3, gaming lore, local and international governments, and jewelry and gold markets, driving high-impact initiatives, securing funding, and turning complex challenges into tangible results. ​ My quiver is full—product design, build, and execution, scientific research and writing, legislative advocacy, strategic planning, thought leadership, stakeholder engagement, carbon innovation field to delivery, and certification development. I also created a sustainable business plan for a Hawai'i-based community redevelopment project focused on food security, housing, and resilience. More than anything, I break through barriers to engage.

    US-trained primary care physician and entrepreneur running my own medical practice. I am a graduate of the USC Keck School of Medicine. At Keck, I was one of 8 medical students selected to participate in the Health, Technology, and Engineering (HTE) program. In this program, I researched telemedicine and the performance of wearable medical technology. So I have a unique knowledge of remote patient monitoring, performance metrics of wearable technology, and overall what is possible in the telemedicine space. Other healthcare experience: I was an intern physician at Loyola University during the COVID pandemic. I completed post-doctorate research at Harvard. I am an advisor to medical VC firm. So whatever your need is in the medical space, I've got you covered!

    Current resident physician (MD) in otolaryngology- head & neck surgery (ENT) with a strong interest in serving and mentoring the next generation of college/ graduate school applicants. As an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania I pursued a BA in history while completing pre-medical requirements. My education taught me how to be an effective writer and communicator. These skills were further augmented during my pursuit of my MD degree where I learned to work and study tirelessly in taking care of patients and communicating with their families. My approach to working with students is largely based on getting to know my students such that we ensure that we are fully communicating the student's voice in a way that is cohesive and persuasive in their essays. In addition to strengthening application materials, I aim to review the student's writing and provide meaningful feedback in a way that helps students become stronger writers and critical thinkers. My experience going through college admissions, medical school admissions and matching into one of the most competitive surgical subspecialties in the United States has also given me valuable insight in how to build an overall strong application and how to interview effectively.
