I build data teams that outlast me.

I've spent 11 years inside some of the most consequential progressive organizations in the country building world class data teams — from hiring top tier talent, developing junior analysts and engineers, and charting the course for leveraging modern data best practices.

Now I want to help you do the same.

Work Experience

2022 - 2026

Working Families Party

Chief Technology Officer (2024–Present) · National Data Director (2022–2024)

I modernized WFP's data infrastructure, migrating from Redshift to BigQuery and implementing the modern data stack (dbt, Prefect, and Hex) — reducing technical debt and improving performance, reliability, and maintainability.

I grew the department from a team of one to seven by bringing on the Party's first-ever Analytics Director and Engineering Director and building out each of their teams from scratch.

The result: for the first time in the Party's 26-year history, WFP could run it's own research and experimentation in-house and quickly build production-level automations to meet organizing needs . The modern data team we built saved hundreds of hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars in staff time.

2019 - 2022

Sunrise Movement

Data Director

I built Sunrise's data infrastructure from scratch, introducing the organization to the modern data stack — most notably dbt — and building out the analytical infrastructure from the ground up. This infrastructure was vital to Sunrise's 2020 electoral program, where we reached 2.5 million voters.

In my time at Sunrise I invested deeply in my team, upskilling four junior analysts and engineers and building a culture of technical growth and excellence that extended well beyond my tenure.

2016 - 2019

Engineers for a Sustainable World

Executive Director

I led a network of 1,750 collegiate engineering students across 50 chapters. I secured $50,000 in corporate sponsorship — the highest in ESW's 14-year history. I launched Build Day, a national community resilience initiative piloted in two cities.

Areas of Expertise

Modern Data Stack

I've championed the modern data stack across progressive organizations — both at the places I've led data teams and more broadly in the ecosystem. I help organizations move off legacy infrastructure and build systems that are fast, maintainable, and built to last.

Team Building & People Management

I've hired, managed, and developed 12+ technical staff across analytics engineering, software engineering, and product — building two high-performing data teams at major political organizations from the ground up. I know what it takes to find the right people, set them up to succeed, and build a culture where they grow.

NextGen Voter Contact

Through my work leading Votivate at Working Families Party and my time serving on the Movement Cooperative board, I've had a front-row seat to the conversation about next-generation voter contact tools.

Data Strategy & Vision

I help organizations understand what's possible with their data — and build a clear path to get there. Whether that means auditing what you have, identifying where you're leaving value on the table, or making the case for investment to leadership, I help teams move from reactive reporting to proactive strategy.

Coaching & Talent Development

Developing data talent is some of the most important work I do. I coach data directors on leadership, strategy, and team-building, and work with junior analysts and engineers to build the technical foundations and professional confidence to grow into senior roles.

Product & Project Management

I help organizations translate goals into measurable action — setting OKRs, building robust real-time tracking systems, and designing reporting that leadership can actually use. I'm also an experienced Asana practitioner and trainer, helping teams adopt project management practices that stick.
