Nobody knows everything, but together we know a lot.

As a professional urban planner currently serving at MassDOT and with previous experience working in Medford City Hall, I will bring a unique and important skill set to the Medford City Council.  In my previous planning role at  Medford City Hall, I helped develop the COVID-19 Business Relief Grant program to support local businesses during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, and I helped establish the City's first Outdoor Dining protocols. In my current role at MassDOT, I help connect communities and regional planning agencies with funding to complete critical transportation projects throughout Massachusetts. I got my professional training right here in Medford at Tufts University’s Department of Urban & Environmental Planning & Policy, and I’m eager to continue giving back to the community I call home. 

In addition to my planning work, I am passionate about working directly with my neighbors and local families. Over the years, I have developed deep ties with local families and community groups through my part-time work as a caregiver for neurotypical and neurodivergent children and through my advocacy work focused on pedestrian accessibility with the non-profit WalkMassachusetts. I have spent more than five years organizing with Mutual Aid Medford and Somerville (MAMAS), helping our neighbors access groceries and get help with other local needs, and I’ve been a proud member and campaign volunteer with Our Revolution Medford since 2020.
