I am an experienced government and nonprofit administrator who seeks to focus my professional skills to the betterment of the community. I have spent my entire career working to improve people’s lives, especially in our most vulnerable communities.
I bring strong leadership and administrative skills, a unique perspective and proven acumen with the operational and development needs for a community serving agency to be successful, including:
- Executive experience. Leads a multi-disciplinary team of 150+ management, professional and support staff who serve the community at childcare centers, senior centers, recreation centers, aquatics centers, and public libraries.
- Budget management. Develops, analyzes, monitors, presents and implements a $19.4 million annual operating budget across multiple operating divisions and revenue sources.
- Fundraising and grants. Secured $2.5 million in grant awards to support early childhood education, public facility capital improvements, community programs and other initiatives; and $600,000 in private donations toward furnishings and equipment in a new multi-service community center.
- Delivering solutions through community-based organizations, including housing rehabilitation for older adults and people with disabilities, paratransit services, housing assistance, and performance-based grants to local nonprofits.
- Organizational development. Restructured two formerly separate municipal operating departments into a single synergistic department, achieving cost savings, efficiencies, and enhanced customer service.
- Public-private project management. Served as client manager to design, develop, build, and operate a major new multi-service center in an underserved neighborhood through a public-private partnership with Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook).
