My lifelong goal is to create innovative and accessible technological resources for immigrants, asylees, refugees, and newcomers with disabilities. The intersections of disability, culture, language, and migration are not only central to my professional work, but also deeply personal to me. As I begin my upcoming role as Technology Coordinator at A. Harry Moore Laboratory School, I hope to expand the use of inclusive and assistive technologies across classrooms while supporting students with multiple disabilities in ways that honor their individual strengths, communication needs, and learning styles. I am committed to uplifting marginalized communities through creativity, advocacy, compassion, and culturally responsive practice. In the future, I plan to extend this work beyond my school community by partnering with organizations that support displaced populations and developing inclusive educational technology initiatives for refugees with disabilities in resettlement settings and other under-resourced communities.

I measure success by the extent to which my work meaningfully serves others and remains authentic to the communities with which I engage. For me, success is not defined solely by titles, accomplishments, or recognition, but by whether I have created greater access, strengthened opportunities, and contributed to positive change. I consider my work successful when the individuals and communities I serve feel seen, respected, supported, and empowered. This requires listening carefully, honoring lived experiences, responding to genuine needs, and remaining accountable to the people most affected by my decisions. By building trust, fostering inclusive relationships, and creating sustainable opportunities for growth, I strive to ensure that my success is measured not only by what I achieve, but by the lasting impact I leave behind.
