Katherine Zabaneh

I am a seasoned Executive Director with a strong background in executive administration, community leadership, and operational management. With over six years of experience leading the Cedarbrae Community League Association, I have successfully implemented strategic initiatives that increased revenue by 125% and grew membership by 10% annually. My expertise spans facility management, financial oversight, policy development, and volunteer engagement, ensuring sustainable growth and strong community relationships.

Before stepping into community leadership, I gained extensive experience in executive administration, supporting high-level decision-makers in legal, corporate, and nonprofit settings. My roles have involved managing financial processes, overseeing compliance, coordinating board activities, and optimizing operational efficiency. Additionally, my tenure as an Executive Assistant in liability insurance claim investigations honed my organizational and problem-solving skills, while my work as a paralegal strengthened my attention to detail and regulatory knowledge.

Beyond my professional roles, I am passionate about fostering inclusive and engaged communities. Whether through strategic planning, grant writing, or team development, I thrive in environments where I can drive growth, enhance efficiency, and create meaningful connections.
