United States
Message

At Interior Regional Housing Authority, I lead finance and operations for a tribally designated housing entity serving 31 Alaska communities. I protected approximately $2.4M in grant funding, secured more than $5M in new grants and sponsorships, and generated approximately $1M in recurring annual savings.

Earlier, I implemented Fairbanks North Star Borough School District’s first AP EFT capability in Tyler Munis and reduced card review and reconciliation time by more than 30%. Across housing, education, nonprofit, utility and government finance, I’ve worked to strengthen controls, protect funding and support community priorities.
