As a European Urban Initiative expert, I've been privileged to be involved in shaping the future of cities across Europe as an assessor for the Innovative Actions Fund, co-founder of the Building Decarbonisation thematic partnership, and currently co-lead of the Access to Finance Policy Lab and Capacity Building Event this October in Rotterdam.

Before this time as a consultant, I was the smart cities officer for the Mayor of London for four years and an urban design consultant for a decade.

I'm also the Co-founder and CEO of Soundscape for Great Cities, a service borne out of Microsoft Research integrating audio wayfinding into urban development, sustainable tourism, and event venues to make them even more economically vibrant and inclusive places to live, work, and play.

I'm an American, Italian, and British citizen and try to run and swim as much as time will allow!
