Committed to a career in non-profits since graduating from Tufts University and then the Harvard Graduate School of Education, I am privileged to have worked to advance the critical missions of organizations serving the public good, serving in that honored place between those doing the work to make the world a better place and those with the commitment to investing in that work.
