Now

Last updated: January 2026

What I’m Focused On

• Designing and maintaining systems that help families and providers navigate child care more easily
• Strengthening insight infrastructure for child care resource & referral and community partners
• Exploring AI workflows and agent networks that reduce administrative stress for providers and families

Current Collaborations

• Supporting MCCP.org and statewide family-facing tools as Web Content Manager
• Serving as a Director with the Family Child Care Association of San Francisco (FCCASF)
• Continuing strategic work with the Asian Early Childhood Education Alliance (AECEA / ACECA)
• Participating in the UPK Mixed Delivery Workgroup
• Advising the Heising-Simons Foundation’s Child Care Justice work in California
• Serving on the Technical Work Group and Advisory Committee for the Center for Home-Based Child Care Research

What I’m Learning

• Research on belonging and situation design, and how it applies to early childhood systems
• How narrative and power shape what becomes “politically possible” in child care
• Practical ways AI can support—not replace—the human work of care and community

What I’m Practicing

• Speaking up with clarity while staying grounded in compassion
• Holding clearer boundaries without abandoning collaboration
• Designing for belonging as a core requirement, not a nice-to-have
