I am an architect - of initiatives, teams, and organizations. I thrive in moving groups from ambiguity to action. I connect dots and see around corners to help my teams understand the bigger picture and anticipate what’s next - both of which inspire their best work. I lead with humility, curiosity, and mindfulness to learn with and from others. Over the last 20 years, I've been fortunate to have had multiple opportunities where I was given a blank canvas and trusted to create something new and enduring. I've done this by setting a vision, aligning and guiding others to operationalize it, ensuring that we reached our goals and communicating our impact.Growing up as the eldest child of first-generation immigrants defined my values. Training as a physician helped me understand the impact of poverty, systemic racism, sexism, and caregiving on the lives of families. Seeing the evolution of philanthropy as both a practitioner and a board member across corporate, private, and family foundations has shaped my views and approach to philanthropy.
