In my current role as the Communications and Special Projects Manager for Hunger Free New Jersey and the Center for Food Action, I lead projects that expand reach, inspire collaboration, and raise awareness about hunger and food insecurity across the state.

Before joining the nonprofit sector, I spent several years as a freelance communications consultant, partnering with small businesses and social impact organizations to develop campaigns, digital strategies, and brand identities that told powerful stories and elevated their missions. That experience taught me how to adapt quickly, listen carefully, and translate ideas into results, a foundation that continues to guide my work today.

I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Strategic and Digital Communication at Drexel University and am a proud alum of Rowan University and Camden County College. I believe in lifelong learning and continuous growth, and one day, I even hope to put my knowledge to the test on Jeopardy!

My outlook is shaped by my upbringing as an Army Brat and the incredible bravery of my Desert Shield and Desert Storm veteran parents. They taught me that there is always a way, instilling in me the resilience, determination, and optimism that guide both my work and my life. My long-term goal is to continue growing as a nonprofit communications leader, using strategic storytelling to uplift communities and create lasting change.
