As Managing Director of Redeemer Downtown, I drove the strategic operation and implementation of our systems, structures, finances, and communication. I was also the CEO and Executive Director's strategic partner, proxy, and force multiplier. With years of successful experience in project management and working on numerous cross-functional and collaborative projects, I was able to ensure that my team succeeded. I also worked regularly with the Board of Directors, preparing reports, policies, and other key data for their review. As a member of the Executive Leadership Team, I had a comprehensive understanding of all that was happening within the organization to ensure there was full alignment between the various departments. I also worked on setting the strategic roadmap and key deliverables to achieve the organization's mission.
