About Me + My Work

I’m Mira (she/they pronouns)-- a queer white Jew, fourth-generation San Franciscan, and settler on Chochenyo Ohlone land. I’m a people-loving extrovert who thrives on developing our capacity for transformation. I live in East Oakland with my partner Tiffani and our dogs Mila and Chauncey, tending to my 24 fruit trees and making medicine from the abundant plant life growing in my garden. I’ve dedicated my life to building strong communities, developing white antiracist consciousness and courage, and creating opportunities for societal transformation.

I became involved in the antiracist movement in 2009 while organizing as an undergraduate student at UC Santa Cruz. This period, building in solidarity with communities of color, forever altered my life and propelled me past my liberal, social justice upbringing into a life committed to deeper political and personal grounding--moving beyond trends and committing to a life-long identity as an aspiring antiracist. My journey taught me that each person has their own awakening in coming to justice work, and that both compassion and critical push are essential to our long-term evolution.

After ten years as an educator and equity strategist in public schools, I pivoted into tech to work in social impact and community partnerships. My goal was simple: bring underrepresented San Francisco talent in the door and resources and impact opportunities into the community. My mission is centered in building bridges between communities and companies, connecting visionaries on all spheres who want to create change.
