My work is centered on technology and society and how it intersects with philanthropy, policy, and organizational strategy.
My recent work includes establishing and directing the Spyware Accountability Initiative, co-founding the Green Screen Coalition on tech & climate, and managing a $125M grantmaking portfolio.
I’ve led organizational transformations for institutions large and small, managed global convenings for technology and nonprofit leaders, and directed landscaping and strategy research initiatives.
I recently completed a full term at Ford Foundation as a Senior Program Officer with the Technology and Society team. I managed a global $125M grantmaking portfolio on public interest technology, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and more. I also developed and led the Technology Fellows program to transform the institution’s ability to integrate technology expertise into all areas of work.
