I enjoy working for dynamic organizations open to evolving opportunities and ready to move. I have had the privilege to be part of smart dedicated senior leadership teams. My work has been inspired by working to improve the quality of life around the world at organizations like the MIT Media Lab, One Laptop per Child, and the MIT Refugee Action Hub (ReACT). Some of my favorite accomplishments include: • Building and growing a broad international coalition to bring ReACT from concept to impact. Inspired the MIT community brought its best to develop and deliver new blended learning models to dozens of talented refugees, from 12 countries and a majority women, where they live and now work. • Collaborating on new fundraising, advocacy, and partnership campaigns that lead to the launch of One Laptop per Child, and the world-wide distribution of over 2.5 million laptops. Basically moving OLPC from zero to total annual operational budgets exceeding $150 million.• Developing comprehensive partnerships across the Middle-East to deliver thousands of laptops (with support and training) to Palestinian refugee primary school students in Gaza and the West Bank.• Supporting MIT's Institute for Medical Engineering and Science's evolution and growth as a thriving community with 7 new research labs, 100% increase in grants, and many new research partnerships.
