About Me

My Photo
A San Francisco native, I am 5/8 educator and 5/8 social entrepreneur. Trained as an industrial designer at the Rhode Island School of Design, I have continued my quest for meaningful work at the intersection of design/business/social impact. This has led me to teaching at Pratt Institute, Brown University's Community Environmental College and at my alma mater, where I founded the advanced studio, Design for Social Entrepreneurship, as the youngest adjunct faculty after working for Design that Matters. I just finished working as a marketing and sustainability consultant for a social enterprise in Kathmandu, Nepal, and am currently the Studio Lead and "Design Therapist" for this year's Design for America summer Fellows Program @ Northwestern.

EK Hero Party in NYC!

Got to hang out with some of my real life heroes and sheroes tonight!! Woohoo!

Timberland EK Heroes with new celebrity hero Wyclef Jean! Check out his Yele Haiti!
One of my favorite sheros, Majora Carter, and new fellow EK Hero friend Andrea Bakacs

They had posters of us. Kind of embarrassing and kind of cool. 

And they had drinks named after us! 
Me and fellow Grainer, Brittany Kleinman
