My background spans philanthropic activities and NGO programs, systems, and operations. I spent four years at CARE International with the Emergency Capacity Building Project, a collaboration between six of the largest NGOs, aimed at improving humanitarian response. There, I led the knowledge management and learning portfolio and focused on increasing accountability to disaster affected people. Prior to that, I worked for several years at the Global Fund for Children, managing the Eastern Europe and US grants and capacity building initiatives. Over the years, I have developed and served on a number of creative grantmaking programs, including a giving circle, a community grantmaking initiative, and several local, regional and national grants panels.
