In my non-design time, I am a civically-engaged New York advocating for safer streets, a more sustainable future, and accountability and transparency in local politics.
As the founding chairperson of the Transportation Alternatives' North Brooklyn Committee, I helped organize my neighbors to win projects like bike lanes and open streets.
I also represented my neighbors as a member of the County Committee of the Brooklyn Democrat Party and fought alongside like-minded Democrats to transform the party into one that represents all Brooklynites, not just the well-connected.
You might also find me doing laps on my bike in Central Park, or in the gym perfecting the Olympic lifts.
