Kira is someone who turns ideas into reality—whether it's running a successful collaborative art show, developing an interactive karaoke-based experience that celebrates friendship, or creating a satirical trailer for a movie that will never (and should never) be made.
Kira is Director of Operations at the National Women's Studies Association, the academic association for the field of women and gender studies. She co-founded 826DC (formerly Capitol Letters) , a non-profit that provides free programming including creative writing workshops, student publications, field trips, and after-school tutoring for K-12 students in the nation's capital. Additionally, Kira serves on the Baltimore City Women's Commission, Awesome Foundation Baltimore Trustee, the Grand Rapids Customer Advisory Board, is active with Fluid Movement, and has the pleasure of volunteering with Special Olympics DC Unified basketball every winter.
Originally from Florida, Kira has called Baltimore home since 2012. Kira currently lives with her partner and their pet rabbit in the Mount Vernon neighborhood.
