With more than a decade of experience in leadership and economic development, I serve as Principal Consultant at People In Place Economics Consulting, where our mission is to mobilize People In Place. I design and implement customized programs that advance economic mobility by helping municipalities, nonprofits, and community-based organizations address structural challenges and achieve sustainable, competitive outcomes.

By maintaining a strategic awareness of global economic trends and emerging patterns, I guide partners in aligning investments, policies, and programs that drive inclusive growth.

Previously, as an Executive Fellow with FUSE Corps, I partnered with city leaders to modernize business retention strategies and develop inclusive small business programming with sustainable funding models. These initiatives strengthened local entrepreneurship ecosystems and aligned economic policy with community priorities.

Through People In Place Economics, I help communities thrive through workforce development, entrepreneurship, financial literacy, housing, and capacity-building initiatives that create equitable and lasting pathways to economic mobility.
