Bio

I am the founder and CEO of Foundation E - a 501(c)3 nonprofit impact-driven company that is harnessing the power and influence of media to change the world. Combining education and entertainment to create effective global impact. Foundation E develops and produces film + TV + short content + immersive experiences + XR projects honed in on the social causes of our time - poverty, gender/racial equality, education, climate change, homelessness, the refugee crisis. Foundation E accompanies a global social impact campaign/movement with each project’s cause. The campaigns educate, galvanize and equip the public, while affecting measurable change. In addition, Foundation E hires diversely and inclusively to employ and empower those who are underrepresented, underserved and disadvantaged. Foundation E leverages its powerful relationships with the top entertainment and social impact industry leaders to bring maximum awareness, influence and global impact to the causes we address.

I'm passionate about

Education. Collaboration. Social Impact. Youth. Inclusion and access for all.
