Field notes
The career record runs from a journalism classroom to district communications leadership and a current role at a K–12 architecture firm. It gives scale to the school-district work—52 campuses, more than 52,000 students and a 12-person team—while the project section marks some builds as unfinished: Grounding Quest is in development, Calmer is coming soon, and Beacon Torch is testing file transfer.
