About CTDnyc

CTDnyc is a nonprofit organization that has reached over 16,000 individuals dedicated to addressing homelessness through technology, media, policy, and education. I lead all aspects of strategy, development, and outreach across the organization’s core initiatives: • CTDnyc App (IOS: Jan 2024, Android: Nov 2024) Developed and launched a mobile-friendly app that centralizes access to food, shelter, hygiene, and health resources for unhoused individuals in New York City. Designed to close the information gap and empower New Yorkers to assist their unhoused neighbors. Featured on CBS New York for using technology to address systemic challenges. • CTDnyc Podcast (March 2025) Host and produce a podcast focused on housing insecurity, public health, and access to care. Each episode features interviews with nonprofit leaders, policymakers, and individuals with lived experience. Distributed on YouTube, Spotify, Audible, and Amazon Music. • Entrepreneurship Without An Address (March 2025) Created an online platform to support individuals experiencing homelessness in navigating business ownership. Breaks down barriers related to address requirements, banking, and startup capital, and provides actionable steps and vetted resources. • Entrepreneurship Without An Address: Policy Proposal (May 2025) Wrote a formal policy proposal outlining legislative reforms to make entrepreneurship more accessible for homeless individuals. Recommendations include address flexibility, tiered fee waivers, alternative ID pathways, and mentorship programs. • CTD Ambassador Program (July 2025) Designed and launched an eight-week leadership program for students interested in addressing homelessness in their local communities. Program includes expert-led sessions, resource mapping, direct outreach, and a final project proposing a solution to a local homelessness-related issue.
