I am a professor, researcher, and consultant for social change.

My expertise lies in capacity building and community engagement for organizational and community-level change. As an interdisciplinary feminist scholar, I teach and research leadership for social justice at the intersection of race, class, gender, and place. I also partner with social justice leaders as a consultant to facilitate transformation for their teams, organizations, and networks.

Teaching + Research

How can everyday people be change agents and co-creators of knowledge and action for social justice?

Whether at the organizational, local, or national level, this question runs a throughline in my teaching and research. I teach courses at New York University that address this question and more. In 2020, I created the Story Circle Interview Method, a participatory data collection technique for shifting power and leadership in qualitative research.

I work with nonprofit, government, and movement-building leaders to spark programmatic, organizational, and network-level transformations. I provide services in the following areas:
