I am a civic and climate activist, information technology professional, a graduate of Montgomery County Public schools, and a resident of Kensington Heights. I have a BA in history, was an Alfa Fellow in 2010, cultivate a native species garden, and play and compose music for fun.

Some of the organizations I have worked with include:

• Extinction Rebellion Montgomery County

• The Climate Mobilization Montgomery County

• Indivisible Montgomery

• Kensington Heights Civic Association.

At Indivisible Montgomery, I chaired:

• the national security committee

  • led to the development and founding of the Secure Elections Network (https://secureelectionsnetwork.org/)

• the outreach committee

  • organized congressional visits to lobby our representatives on various matters, organized voter registration drives, connected with various civic groups in Montgomery County

At MCFACs I chaired a committee which developed a guide for Montgomery County residents to purchase clean energy.

At Kensington Heights I chaired the beautification committee.

At Extinction Rebellion and the Climate Mobilization I did/do communications and participated in non-violent direct actions, and was a member of the steering committee.
