Translating complexity into action

Strategic Communications · Programs & Operations · Climate & Environment · AI-Native

I work where complexity meets people. I built an international climate fund's communications function from scratch as its funding grew 75%, and ran environment and small-enterprise programs in the field in West Africa. Today my work spans strategic communications — creating brands, messaging, and narrative — and building AI-native tools for sustainability.
