Leadership DNA
As an Executive Director, I retained a team of 90+ staff members through a turbulent period and developed new standard operating procedures to maintain high morale and core competencies. My experience in recruiting and onboarding a new board of directors also demonstrates my ability to attract and integrate top talent.
I led a complete post-pandemic restructuring and rebuilt a scalable business that exceeded its $6.5M annual revenue target and achieved net profitability. I am a strategic leader, business developer, and high-level communicator known for building relationships and finding innovative solutions to achieve organizational goals.
I drove financial and operational excellence by overachieving budget targets, eliminating previous liabilities, and building large cash reserves through focused cost management, capacity expansion, and the implementation of 14+ high-ROI Capital Expense projects (e.g., technology upgrades).
I built organizational capacity and stability by identifying, recruiting, and onboarding 3 new board members and retaining a 90+ person staff through a turbulent period; developed core competency documents and streamlined reporting that secured buy-in and high confidence from key stakeholders and the Board of Directors.
