What I’m Building
Through Conscious Futures, I explore how to support civic imagination, community-based storytelling, and relational design for a more connected future.
What I believe
I believe care is infrastructure.
That imagination is strategy.
That healing and systems change aren’t separate — but inseparable.
What I’m Doing Now
As a human-centered designer and narrative strategist, I help transform insight into action—through workshops, frameworks, and participatory design with organizations and communities.
A Journey Rooted in Care and Complexity
From trauma research to learning ecosystems, my path has spanned global policy, wellbeing, and social innovation. I collaborate across disciplines to make complexity feel actionable.
Rooted in research.
Moved by meaning.
Guided by systems of belonging.
From Neuroscience to Systems Change
The question that has always driven me:
What helps people — and communities — truly flourish? What began as an academic fascination with the brain soon expanded into a systems-level inquiry into belonging, healing, and change.Personal Principles
Imagination as praxis
Imagination as Praxis
Imagination does not have to be a luxury, but a tool for systemic and personal transformation.
Complexity is a Feature, Not a Flaw
Design with — not around — complex systems. Embracing nuance and non-binary thinking is a key facet of how we make change-making not just solution seeking but transformational systems change.
