Chief Financial Officer"Growing up in Haiti and studying in Puerto Rico, I witnessed firsthand the impact that effective financial management (or the lack) can have on an organization’s ability to drive positive change. This insight motivated me to pursue a career where I could blend my analytical skills with my passion for engaging with meaningful causes. 22 years later, I’m proud to be contributing to a mission that transforms communities by providing critical services and support.
