About Me

I'm a writer, researcher, and creator based in Atlanta. Exploring ethical storytelling, and better ways of being in the modern world.

Communication for change

My background spans humanitarian innovation, policy, advocacy and strategic communications, shaped by over a decade with international NGOs and social ventures across Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America.


These days, my work is slower, more personal, and grounded in care for people, place, and planet.

I’m drawn to how wisdom traditions, storytelling, and embodied practice help us live with more attention and compassion. I’m also guided by ecological consciousness and a reverence for the entire living world, not just the human parts.

Exploring ethics

Right now, I’m creating and stewarding Social Resonance Lab, a collaborative studio exploring how ethical storytelling fosters human connection.

I'm also studying part-time at the University of Oxford with the Uehiro Oxford Institute, a leading global center facilitating ethical progress through research, teaching, and real-world application.

Alongside this, I am Adjunct Faculty on Agnes Scott College's M.S. in Strategic Communication, helping to prepare students to be leaders in professional and public fields that require advanced digital communication with diverse global audiences.

Outside of this, I’m raising a wonderfully curious little human, Leo, and spending as much time as I can reading, cooking, practicing yoga, studying French and Japanese, and traveling mindfully. My husband and I also share a food & travel Instagram account, @omnommies, where we document our favorite meals, markets, and shared adventures.

My Current

Focus

Social Resonance Lab

We are exploring ethical storytelling and human connection through research, creative practice, and collaboration.

MSt in Practical Ethics, University of Oxford

Studying moral philosophy and applied ethics, and embracing real-world complexity and nuance.

Teaching and Leadership

I am currently also Adjunct Faculty at Agnes Scott College, working with graduate students to harness the power of strategic storytelling.

What Grounds Me

In a world that often moves too fast, I choose slowness, care, and deep attention.

I believe in:

Empathy as a radical, necessary act.

The profound power of stories.

Rest, reflection, and joy as forms of quiet resistance.

The need to de-center extraction, shame, and urgency in how we live and work.
