Storyteller

I was 21, when I founded my first business: a social issue theater company.

We traveled to schools across the US,  talking to students about mental health, sexual violence, eating disorders, and school violence. 

This sparked my lifelong love of combining storytelling with purpose.

Podcaster

I love making content that helps folks feel seen, heard, and understood, which is why I LOVE making podcasts. 

My latest creations are: American Girl Podcast Network, Dove’s Let’s Change Beauty podcast, and Dominant Stories podcast.

Politically Active

I proudly serve on the National Board of Directors for She Should Run, a non-partisan, non-profit working to dramatically increase the number of women considering a run for public office.

Being active in politics has been
a life-long passion.

And we need to raise our voices
now more than ever!

Philanthropist

My husband Felipe and I love to support an extraordinary organization in Guatemala, The MAIA Impact School.

This school helps indigenous girls in rural communities receive the 21st-century education they need. We help raise funds and awareness for this incredible program - check them out!

Fur Mom

I’m a parent to 5 amazing animals! Three black kitties:  Buzzy, Bootchie, and Luna.

And two pups: A one-eyed & deaf senior rescue dog named Una, and Sassy (pictured here)! 

Being their Mom brings me joy and takes up about 99% of my camera roll.
