Experience

1. Senior Philanthropy Officer

   UNICEF USA

   Sep 2021 — Present · Miami, FL, US

   At UNICEF USA I have the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented, hardest-working, and kind-hearted group of humanitarians I’ve ever had the opportunity of calling my colleagues and leaders. Our mission is simple yet bold, we’re chasing a more equitable world for every child. We do this in partnership with wealth holders from across the world seeking to carry meaning beyond themselves. As a philanthropic advisor I help philanthropists discover what their wealth means when it meets a child\'s potential, and the purpose and meaning that comes with that. The world’s heaviest burdens rise only when we lift together. My role is to bridge the gap between generosity and purpose in pursuit of impact.
