Experience
Financial Innovation for Impact
At Fii, I run data protection, working with regulators and other stakeholders to accelerate national and global financial technology oversight. Leading a global team, we’re convening regulators, breaking new ground in qualitative and quantitative research, and developing the world’s first roadmap towards full-spectrum integration of financial and data regulation.
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Prior to Fii, I served in the CFPB’s Office of Markets, leading on market intelligence and policymaking for open finance. Our team drove a decade-long policy process that culminated in a national framework for consumer financial data rights, including some of the world’s strongest data protection rules.
I also led on prepaid accounts, remittances, and credit cards, contributing to landmark rulemakings and mandatory milestone reports to Congress.
Education
I received my Master’s degree in Public Policy from the George Washington Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Administration, with a specialization in Program Evaluation and Policy Analysis.
I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and Television Studies from Dartmouth College.
