About
"Unusual perspectives are my oxygen, and my curiosity drives me to breathe deeply."
As an entrepreneur, I'm fascinated by the intersection of innovation, systems thinking, and community engagement to create meaningful, scalable change. As co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer across multiple ventures, I work at the nexus of cooperative economics, impact technology, and community-driven development.
From building multi-stakeholder cooperatives to launching B-Corps and nonprofit foundations, my work is about designing systems that lift communities, empower entrepreneurs, and prove that business can be a force for collective good. Based in Austin, TX, I'm building an ecosystem where collaboration isn't just a value — it's the operating model.

Board Member & Co-founderWriting
Communities don't need better programs. They need better combinations. An economic framework built on the premise that the most valuable outcomes emerge from the intentional design of conditions where diverse elements combine.
The root cause isn't a lack of resources. It's a lack of ownership. How cooperative economics, design thinking, and platform technology can transform communities.
Cooperative EconomicsIn an economy obsessed with shareholder primacy, multi-stakeholder cooperatives offer a radical alternative — one that's proving more resilient, equitable, and surprisingly profitable.
