What Brought you to RE!NSTITUTE?

I came to RE!INSTITUTE excited by the opportunity to support ambitious goals for social and systemic change bounded by concrete, actionable timelines and shaped by local initiative and the dedication of frontline workers, those with lived experience, and systems’ leaders across agencies and sectors. (The methodology was a big draw!)

What’s Your Current Role?

As a catalyst at RE!NSTITUTE, I get to work directly with communities in their 100-Day Challenges and Spread-and-Scale efforts to develop and adapt effective innovations for changemaking.

What do you love about your role and RE!NSTITUTE?

I’ve always been passionate about collaboration and the collective pursuit of a more just world, so it’s a real joy to get to work with amazing people who really care about making evidence-based improvements and creative interventions in their own communities and systems, and learning together about how we might make the world kinder, more equitable, and more livable for everyone.

Where will we find you in your free time?

In my free time, you can find me wandering outside in the woods with my spouse and child or pursuing one of my many creative hobbies from knitting to writing and (occasionally) making music. I almost always have a good book (or three!) close at hand.
