A strong commitment to intercultural and interreligious dialogue, Callie has filmed an award-winning documentary highlighting the role of women in the refugee crisis, co-founded a microwork application connecting refugees to income opportunities, contributed to the implementation of Youth 2030: the UN Youth Strategy, and developed grassroots strategies in Egypt, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar on behalf of the United Nations to prevent violent extremism and ensure gender parity in leadership across the Middle East and North Africa.

She sits on the Board of Directors for StartingBloc, a global fellowship for social entrepreneurs and the Loomis Innovation Council, an initiative of the Stimson Center, a forum for technology leaders and policymakers to build equitable, innovative solutions around the world. Recently, she was appointed to the health equity commission through the HEAL Council, supporting the MN Department of Health in developing strategies to address health disparities.

Last year Callie read one book a week written by a person of color. She is a Reiki master and aspiring DJ.
