The Beginning
I was almost an artist, until I realized creativity isn’t just about art — it can be about building communities and businesses too. In 2021, I built one of North America’s largest student-run nonprofits, School Simplified. Over the next two years, I worked alongside 500 volunteers, grew a digital community of more than 200K students, and helped scale the organization to a $25 million valuation. We secured backing from companies like Atlassian, AWS, Google, Microsoft, and Canva, and hosted two of the largest student hackathons in the country with 500+ signups. That’s where I fell in love with the impact of storytelling, the power of branding, and the joy of bringing people together.

The Present
Fast forward: I’ve carried that passion into everything I do. I became president of Bentley's Asian cultural organization, hosting some of the biggest events of the year and building partnerships with brands like Poppi and Red Bull. I’ve consulted with the Boston Celtics on content strategy and growth, worked in fintech and crypto marketing, and built apps and AI-powered automations that help startups move faster. I’ve also served in executive roles at national nonprofits, from leading partnerships for the largest Asian professional nonprofit in the country to serving on the C-suite of the world’s largest bipartisan political nonprofit.

The Beyond
Outside of work, I create. From content for brands, to sharing early-career advice for students, to becoming a top 10 ambassador for the Browser Company, I love experimenting with storytelling in all its forms. And beyond projects, I find joy in music, film, cooking, baking, skiing, and exploring new technology.
At the end of the day, my biggest fear is living a life of regret. Life is short, so my goal is to live with passion and to help others do the same.
