I worked during the most challenging of times to stabilize the organization, energize the board to be active ambassadors, collaborate with community leaders to expand access to the visual arts, and foster partnerships that leveraged resources. These strategies were critical to take an organization that had three months of operating cash when I began to accumulating well over a year's worth of reserves, all while funding and completing a 7,000 square-foot facility expansion within a renovated textile mill.

My responsibilities included developing the annual operations plan and budget, leading the performance management process, facilitating team and board meetings, strengthening brand awareness to position JA as a trusted resource and solution provider, supporting business development efforts and special events, and working closely with the President to develop our strategic plan and promote board engagement. Because JA is mostly funded by corporations and businesses, its operations and financial procedures are best-in-class among nonprofits. As a result, we actively hired people that continue to bring that level of expertise and professionalism to the table. I viewed the essence of my role as facilitating a greater connection between our mission and programming, and the staff and volunteers that make it all possible. I focused on driving strategic priorities, as well as designing and putting key systems in place regarding onboarding, employee engagement, coaching, and retention so our team members felt valued and supported.I was also instrumental in securing and stewarding key resources from a variety of funders, including Under Armour, Allegis Group, T. Rowe Price, Wells Fargo, and The Achievement Foundation. Show less
