About Me

With more than 15 years of executive leadership experience in philanthropy and the nonprofit sector, I've deployed hundreds of millions of dollars and launched programs reaching millions of people. Along the way, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the complex challenges and transformative potential within mission-driven work.

What drives me most, though, is building strong, values-aligned organizations for people who are changing the world. Today, I focus on coaching senior and emerging leaders who are shaping the future of social impact — helping them lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
