Selected Work & Impact
Building, leading and connecting across systems
From frontline healthcare and grassroots entrepreneurship to global institutions and innovative finance, my career has centered on translating ambitious ideas into meaningful, lasting impact.
I have worked across sectors, geographies and institutions—building organizations, mobilizing capital, shaping partnerships and connecting institutional strategy with the realities of implementation.
Global Health & Institutional Strategy
Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance
Leading strategic country engagement and cross-functional coordination, connecting leadership decisions, financing priorities and technical expertise with the realities of government engagement and country implementation.
Executive Leadership & Organizational Growth
Women in Global Health | Former Deputy Executive Director
Joining as the organization’s first hire and subsequently serving as Deputy Executive Director, I helped scale Women in Global Health from a team of two to more than 30, co-leading organizational strategy, operations and global partnerships.
Led resource mobilization efforts securing US$4.4 million and contributing to a tenfold increase in programmatic funding in under 18 months, including a US$2.2 million Gates Foundation-funded systems-change initiative.
Innovative Finance & Global Partnerships
World Bank Group
Helped establish and launch a US$500 million global results-based financing fund at COP, spearheading stakeholder engagement and resource mobilization and contributing to institutional design and governance.
Worked across health, climate and energy portfolios, connecting financing mechanisms, public policy and partnerships to country-level priorities.
Entrepreneurship & Social Impact
Girls Health Ed | Founder & Former Executive Director
Founded and built an international nonprofit advancing health education and opportunity for adolescent girls and young women, reaching more than 12,000 across the United States, Kenya, Bangladesh and India.
Over 13 years, led organizational development, programs, partnerships and governance—from early-stage entrepreneurship through institutional growth and transition.
Different institutions. Different vantage points. One continuing question: How do we make systems work better for the people they are meant to serve?
