The Work
Three decades, three chapters
01
The United Nations
1999 – 2012Thirteen years across UN agencies — UNHCR, UNICEF, OCHA, WFP. Emergency response in conflict zones. Humanitarian coordination in the aftermath of disaster. Leadership in rooms where the stakes were absolute and the margin for error was zero. This is where I learned what trust really means — and what it costs when it breaks.
02
Multinational Organizations
2012 – 2019Seven years advising governments, international NGOs, and global foundations. Strategy, communications, and leadership development at scale. Working across cultures, languages, and political systems to build the kind of alignment that actually holds. This is where I learned that the hardest problems are never technical — they are human.
03
Social Entrepreneurship
2019 – PresentBuilding from scratch. Founding and advising social enterprises focused on women's leadership, education, and economic empowerment. Taking everything the world taught me and turning it into programs, platforms, and conversations that pass the lessons forward. This is where I learned that the most important work is the work you choose.
What the work has taught
"Real impact is not measured in outputs. It is measured in the moment someone realizes they are more capable than they thought."
On women's leadership programs
"The communities that changed me most were the ones with the least — and the most to teach about resilience, dignity, and what it means to lead without resources."
On humanitarian field work
"Every organization I have worked with had the same core challenge: people who knew what needed to change but did not yet believe they could change it."
