I’m the founder and CEO of WorkMoney, a national nonprofit building an America where hard-working people can afford a good life. Before that, I was a union organizer fighting for higher wages and better jobs.

I’ve always believed in what happens when people have good info, have each others’ backs, and demand better together. That same “people-first” energy drives everything I do at WorkMoney: helping millions of folks raise incomes, cut costs, and finally feel in control of their financial lives.

When I’m not doing that, I’m mom to Eva (objectively the best human ever born) and wife to Gregory, my favorite writer and partner in good life chaos. I can usually be found in the Pacific Northwest, playing games, having a beer with friends, or—who knew?—writing books.
