Background & Experience

I’ve worked in financial strategy for over twenty years in both nonprofit and corporate settings. Prior to becoming an independent consultant, I worked at Teach For America for almost 15 years where I established and built out the financial strategy and planning function.  Our team of analysts provided valued support across the organization during a period of high-growth and organizational change, with both executives and managers indicating that the team’s partnership helped them reach their goals. 

Later in my tenure at Teach For America, I did project based work to re-architect the organization’s internal economic model. I also designed and led the enterprise annual budgeting process and created Board budget and financial reporting materials.

Early in my career, I was analyst in the printing facilities of the Chicago Tribune and Newsday with a focus on production output modeling and reporting.

I currently live live in Brooklyn, New York with my husband, two school-aged boys and a mischievous dog. I chair the Board of Directors for the Brooklyn Book Bodega, a local literacy nonprofit, and enjoy baking and getting outside in my time off.
