Coo / Co-Founder
Civics Unplugged

I'm one of the cofounders of Civics Unplugged, a 501(c)(3) that empowers leaders of Gen Z with the training, funding, and network they need to become the civic innovators their communities need (we're basically YCombinator for high school-aged leaders looking to make a difference in the world in novel ways). We have 1000+ alumni across 40+ countries. Before co-founding CU, I was a Software Engineering Team Lead at Google (on Google Cloud).

Recently, we at CU just launched the Dream DAO (https://dreamdao.xyz), which will invest in the future of the web3 x social impact ecosystem, by providing diverse Gen Zers around the globe with the training, funding, and mentorship they need to leverage the power of web3 to secure a brighter future for humanity. If you're interested in learning more, feel free to shoot me a DM.
