Prior to joining Endunamo as a consultant, I held leadership roles with nonprofits such as the Children’s Defense Fund, Melanoma Research Alliance, and Horton’s Kids where I oversaw all human resources, finance & accounting, grants, IT, procurement, and event logistics. I’ve spent over 9 years on nonprofit boards, including, at various times, leading the Finance & Audit, Governance & Nomination, and DEI Committees.
I was named the DC Nonprofit CFO of the Year Rising Star in 2019 and am a SHRM certified Senior HR Professional. Prior to moving into the nonprofit world in 2012, I managed operations for companies in the political, telecommunications, and transportation sectors.
I completed my undergraduate studies at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University and my graduate studies at the School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at The American University in Cairo. In addition, I completed programs in Risk Management and Communication at Kings College in London and Global Human Resource Management at George Mason University. Recently, I finished the Executive MBA program at the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland.
In my free time I love to travel, play board games, spend time with friends, and volunteer.
