The throughline
I've held a Section 8 voucher and I've sat in the COO's chair of a $12M organization. That range isn't a line on a résumé — it's the reason I can see where an organization is fragile before it breaks.
I founded ToyBox in 2008 and have led operations across budgets from $300K to $24M. Most recently, as COO of a $12M social-justice nonprofit with 80+ staff, I rebuilt all five core systems — finance, HR, IT, grants, and communications — during organizational crisis, and stabilized a team on the edge of collapse.
I work at the intersection of structure and soul: systems that don't just satisfy a funder's checklist, but actually make the work stronger and the people steadier.
