Knight Foundation is a national foundation with strong local roots. We invest in journalism, in the arts, and in the success of the cities where brothers John S. and James L. Knight once published newspapers. I work closely with partners in Miami to expand access to tech careers and to strengthen the community's climate resilience through the management of a $40+ million grant portfolio. I've driven on a strategic expansion to support local climate-solutions organizations and spearheaded community building initiatives that bring together thousands of residents. I regularly represent the foundation publicly while establishing relationships across the private, public and civic sectors.
