Community & Civic Work

Public life deserves
our attention.

Creating room for thoughtful dialogue, youth leadership, and responsibility to the communities we share.

01 / Civic participation

Give people
room to decide.

As founding chair of the Gen Z Coalition of Las Vegas, I help bring students, candidates, and community voices into substantive conversation.

Across the Aisle creates opportunities to hear different arguments, ask questions, and understand the responsibilities of public office. Participation in a forum is not an endorsement of a candidate or political party.

02 / Leadership & mentoring

Responsibility
begins close to home.

My work with young people includes conversations about accountability, credibility, and the choices that shape a reputation. Leadership becomes meaningful through the habits and commitments people practice every day.

03 / Awareness & protection

Bring difficult
patterns into view.

My nonprofit and board-level work has included public awareness around exploitation, abuse, and institutional accountability. That experience informs Behind Closed Doors and my interest in conversations centered on prevention and protection.

I welcome collaboration with organizations seeking to discuss these subjects responsibly.
