Hey, y'all. I'm Wilfred Stephen Anfield.

Grits fed. Purpose led.
Welcome to my porch.
I'm a strategist, writer, and caregiver who centers joy and calls Washington, D.C. home. My Grandma's first-grade classroom raised me. So did over 1,700 hours of national service with City Year AmeriCorps, nearly two decades in digital marketing, communications, and social media, and caring for my Mom.
These days, I sit with health equity, the things that shape it (namely social, digital, and commercial determinants of health), digital inclusion, social change, systems thinking, and participatory design. Big ideas. Human-sized.
Pull up a chair. Read about me and my Southern origin story, wander through my Mason Jar Notes, where I'm learning, observing, and preserving, browse the press room, or just say hello.
I'm glad you found your way here. The sweet tea's already poured.
