President & Chief Executive Officer @Crossroads Of Michigan

Detroit, MI, US

Crossroads is a nonprofit human service agency that finds solutions to poverty and employs a human-centered approach within its solutions. As president and CEO, I fulfill and protect the mission in partnership with the board of trustees. Crossroad\'s credibility with its stakeholders has grown following a strategic vision for growth and sustainability I instituted. I increased funding sources significantly by developing new programs that elevated our value proposition to others. Architecting key departments of funding development, finance, operations, marketing and communications, volunteer, and client impact resulted in marked performance increases and professional opportunity growth for it\'s staff. I represent Crossroads to all stakeholders with confidence. I have formed research partnerships and program collaborations with seven major universities in the country. Major Accomplishments:• Developed, implemented, and secured funding for an innovative social impact model (the Human Centered Poverty Reduction Plan) to reduce poverty and restore equity in people through three intervention programs.• Significantly increased revenues and re-energized dormant fundraising. Received multi-year six-figure grants and increased annual appeal donations by 400%.• I collaborated with the board of trustees to accept new pro-active programs for reducing poverty that would redefine our future and distinguish us from our past. • We reconstructed the delivery of client services, resulting in a 60+% increase in the number of clients served, and rearchitected the functions and performance of major departments, leading to unprecedented outcomes.• We created a highly disciplined and innovative volunteer department and streamlined the onboarding process for immediate placement. In one year, we saw a 17% increase in volunteer enrollment.• Crafted an effective and diverse public engagement strategy that received national attention and a 22% increase in private donors.
