Welcome

I lead organizations and initiatives that drive social change with and for communities furthest from opportunity. I am a fierce advocate for an equitable, inclusive, and diverse democratic society that sees and lifts up those most often overlooked and oppressed.

I earned a PhD in political theory from Loyola University Chicago, where my research focused on the intersection of digital media design and democratic participation.

Look for my newest publication, upcoming later in 2025, about democracy in the age of AI (a chapter in a book): "Participatory Democracy in the Age of AI,” in Dialectic of Digital Enlightenment: Reclaiming Radical Philosophy for Our Times. Edited by Bhabani Shankar Nayak, Palgrave, 2025.
