At NewYork-Presbyterian, I deliver more than 20 annual Culture and Belonging programs that reach over 10,000 employees. I co-led the creation of the new department and led its transition from Diversity and Inclusion while preserving program continuity.

I translate people data into narratives for senior HR and executive audiences, and facilitate inclusive leadership workshops and LGBTQ+ Pathway eLearning. I also direct 13 enterprise Inclusion Groups and support their leaders with planning and reporting.

At Quinnipiac University, I used market analytics and applicant data to shape multicultural recruitment, contributing to a 1% increase in overall diversity enrollment within a fiscal year. Earlier, at Edgewood College, I launched belonging initiatives and increased participation in signature events by 30%.
