About Umrah Thomas

I\'m a people person at heart and I feel most fulfilled in environments that challenge me to listen deeply, think outside of the box, encourage meaningful collaboration, and underscore profit margins with delivering high impact for individuals and communities alike. With over 10+ years of experience in consumer finance, social impact consulting, and creative project management, I\'ve applied my broad skillsets in client services and operational management to various professional environments. I\'ve worked 1-1 with community members to strengthen their financial wellbeing, led national resiliency engagements with multi-sector agencies working to activate capital for social good, and had the pleasure of leading global multi-disciplinary creative teams that help clients bring their visions to life through products, services, and experiences. I have a successful track record of delivering on business outcomes through sound financial project management, while creating environments that support healthy and happy teams. I invest in my colleagues by taking time to understand who they are in and outside of the work environment and what I can do to support their success. The weaving narrative threading my professional experience is connection and impact.
