Welcome! I\'m a seasoned strategic leader with over 10 years of experience in operations-based roles, particularly within non-profit and educational management, where I\'ve centered the needs of the people we serve. I\'m deeply committed to fostering inclusive workplaces and driving change through people-centric strategies. With competencies in financial management, long-term sustainability, community-led decision-making, system optimization, staff well being, authentic community engagement, project management, facility oversight, and team leadership, I bring a comprehensive approach to organizational excellence.As Chief Finance and Operations Officer at Rainier Valley Leadership Academy, I spearheaded initiatives, emphasizing change management and continuous improvement, budgeting, risk mitigation and talent management for staff well-being and retention. My tenure at United Way of Snohomish County enhanced my HR and staff management and interdepartmental skill built, while my role at Hawaii Technology Academy focused on creating and optimizing operations systems and community relations.Let\'s connect and collaborate to see how we can drive outcomes.
