With ten years of experience as a leader in non-profit operations, development, HR, and facilities, I have spent the past eight years as a member of Bishop Walker School’s executive team working to achieve the school’s strategic goals and uphold its mission of working to alter the educational and social trajectories of boys from traditionally underserved communities in and around the District. It is uncommon to find a place of work where your career and philanthropic ideals are intrinsically met and I feel that Sixth & I is one of those rare gems, so I am ecstatic to be on the team!

Born and raised in the suburbs of Washington DC, I could never quite find a good enough reason to take me away from this eclectic region. With an array of history and cultural diversity, I have always known that this is where I wanted to raise a family and build a career. Currently residing in Bethesda with my amazing wife and two wild sons (ages 5 and 3), you can find me at the gym, catching up on a tv show, or partaking in some outdoor adventure with my family.
