Headstream

Innovation

Centering youth voices in an ecosystem development program working to influence digital spaces to be designed for, by, and with black, brown, and queer young people.

Contributed to the planning, design, and execution of Headstreams first and second digital ecosystem “demo day” event that brought together youth, entrepreneurs, investors, and digital justice organizations to share learnings and network across industries.

Directed and produced “A Beautiful Internet," a video collaboration between Headstream, HopeLab, and Building H that brought together a group of young & aspiring social entrepreneurs to advocate for more inclusivity, accessibility, and niche community building behind the technology that directly impacts young people.

Spearheaded a pilot program to accelerate co-creation on the largest Big Tech platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Roblox etc between youth and tech practitioners.

Managed the production of Headstream’s “Designing Digital Wellbeing Series” and led the writing of the Headstream Brief, two resources serving as a toolkit for tech practitioners in the social technology, ed tech, and digital health industries to design youth wellbeing into their platforms and co-create with diverse youth directly.

Co-facilitated the HX Big Think, sponsored by Pivotal Ventures and Susan Crown Exchange, an opportunity that brought together thought leaders in the youth wellbeing, media, DEI, and entrepreneurial ecosystem to co-design a field around “Human Experience; HX” focused on young people’s experiences online.
