As a social impact leader, I am keen to engage the platform with a keen interest in community development and sharing knowledge to members, collaborate on project and shared interests while fostering the shared visions.
Partnerships and collaboration are a key elements of social impact, and I believe that together is better than alone. Joining Catalyst 2030 help me gain access to platform resources, network and community development tools to further the social impact work that I currently do.
Connections and collaborations are my main goal here! I’d love to both networking with organizations who are struggling to secure capacity growth grants due to global or local funding inequities, to provide them with training and potential solutions. We're able to find more cost effective, community-building solutions that are particularly beneficial for low-budget grassroots organization traditionally denied funding due to global marginalization.
Likewise, I’d also like to connect with other capacity builders and disabled cohort leaders (especially around disabled employment challenges) to collaborate. Overall, I’d love to contribute my experience in global intersectional activism and capacity growth.

My passion is for organizing and supporting emerging leadership for social change and human development around the world.

My motivation stems from my work with the Global Schools Program, where I am deeply engaged in advancing education for sustainable development. I believe that transformative communication plays a critical role in shifting mindsets and inspiring action toward sustainability, especially across diverse communities. Joining Catalyst 2030’s team feels like an opportunity to amplify this mission on a global scale learning from innovative strategies while contributing my experience in promoting education as a catalyst for systemic change. I'm eager to explore how global collaborations can strengthen the impact of education for sustainability initiatives.
