What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values collaboration and offers opportunities for impactful project management in health and education.

I am a detail-oriented and self-motivated professional with extensive experience in managing multi-million dollar budgets and executing projects in health and education initiatives. My proficiency in QuickBooks, along with my expertise in overseeing invoicing, accounts receivable, and financial reporting, enables me to drive financial accuracy and ensure compliance with grant requirements.

As a Project Director at the Education Development Center, I directed federally funded projects ranging from $1.7M to $7.4M, maintaining budget accuracy and leading collaboration across various stakeholders. My role involved fiscal operations, contract tracking, and data analysis, all aimed at improving maternal and infant health outcomes. I am passionate about creating scalable systems that enhance project efficiency and effectiveness.

In my recent position as Arizona Program Director at Feeding Matters, I led fiscal oversight for cross-sector pediatric healthcare projects, implementing systems for financial accountability and early screening initiatives. My background in education, combined with my project management skills, positions me uniquely to contribute to organizations focused on impactful health and education initiatives.
