Vermont-raised Oakland-based Everywhere else in between
Non-practicing attorney.
Active believer in conviviality.
Twenty years dreaming up better ways to serve communities — and twenty years putting them into action. I co-founded Communitere International after watching formal systems fail the people who needed them most. I've been figuring out how to build things that actually hold together ever since. Radical ideas and unglamorous execution. That's the whole thing.

Background

JD, University of Oregon Law, 2010. Non-practicing. The legal training shows up in how I read a room, how I structure an argument, and how I draft an agreement — not in billable hours.

Belief

Communities build what they need when everything else fails.

Currently

Director of Operations, Burning Man Project.

Oakland, always.
Fifteen years building

Communitere

I co-founded Communitere International to prove that decentralized community infrastructure works when formal systems fail. Fifteen years later, I still believe it. We have receipts.

What I believe

That unglamorous execution is underrated. That conviviality is a political act. That the people closest to a problem know the most about how to solve it.
