Before joining Virtue Ventures, I served as the International Director for Social-Impact, a professional development program for social entrepreneurs in Hyderabad, India. Earlier, I was program officer at the Skoll Foundation, where I managed some of the Foundation’s largest, earliest grants in support of social entrepreneurs around the world. I previously worked as a program officer at International Development Enterprises (IDE) in Golden, Colorado, helping to manage a program to distribute irrigation devices to poor, rural farmers in Haiti and South Asia. Prior to IDE, I worked briefly at Chemonics International in Washington, D.C. helping to create bids for U.S.-funded development projects in Latin America.

I hold a bachelor of arts in Latin American Economic Development from Franklin and Marshall College, in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and most recently completed an international master’s of business administration with a specialization in finance at the University of Denver.
