I have spent the last decade+ building and scaling organizations that aim to solve some the most pressing problems in health and education. In 2012 I co-founded Panorama Education, a Y Combinator-backed data analytics startup that currently helps tens of thousands of public schools across all 50 states answer critical questions about student experience, school climate, parent engagement, and educator professional development. I then lived in South Africa for several years where I helped create and run Funda Wande, an organization that works with the South African government to design, evaluate, and scale up early grade literacy and math interventions. In 2023, I joined Blueprint Biosecurity, driven by the urgent need for new pandemic prevention solutions and how neglected research and innovation in preventing airborne disease (still) is.

At the moment I'm exploring ways to improve air quality in schools at scale in particular, given the overwhelming evidence that clean air is important for children's health and the growing evidence that it might be one of the most cost-effective ways to improve education outcomes.
