EXPERIENCE
Director of Volunteer Partnerships & Experience
Junior Achievement of Georgia 2022 – Present
I connect powerhouse companies like Delta, UPS, and Home Depot with real opportunities to make an impact — driving a 50% surge in volunteer engagement. I streamline the process with smart tools like VolunteerHub and SharePoint, making it effortless for volunteers to show up, stay involved, and create change. Every year, I orchestrate 10+ high-impact events that bring hundreds of students face-to-face with industry leaders, creating unforgettable moments of mentorship, learning, and inspiration. My mission is simple: build bridges, spark transformation, and make service a driving force for good.
Director of Case Experience
3DE Schools by Junior Achievement 2019 – 2022
I don’t just create events — I create game-changers. I connect powerhouse brands like the Atlanta Hawks, Chase, KPMG, CarMax, Deloitte, and Deluxe with the next generation of leaders through real-world case studies that fuel social impact and student success. Every year, I bring over 30 major events to life, turning classrooms into stages for bold ideas and fresh thinking. I equip 50+ corporate volunteers with the tools to coach, mentor, and ignite transformation — boosting volunteer engagement by 20% and building lasting bridges between companies and communities.
Youth Program Director
Urban League of Greater Atlanta 2013 – 2019
I build programs — and the funding to power them. I secured over $150,000 in grants and sponsorships to fuel education initiatives, channeling resources into both operations and unforgettable student experiences. I expanded college and career prep programming to impact 500+ youth every year, shaping future leaders and building real-world skills. I led a high-energy team of staff, interns, and 100+ volunteers, driving programs that made a difference. I also kept a powerhouse 16-member board — including the President of the Urban League of Greater Atlanta — aligned, informed, and ready to champion our next big move.
Education Specialist
Future Foundation Inc. 2014 – 2016
I led dynamic weekly workshops on healthy relationships and conflict resolution, engaging and empowering over 500 students across Tri-Cities and Banneker High Schools. I revamped the enrollment strategy by launching an automated reminder system (email + SMS) and redesigning the application into a simplified, user-friendly form—cutting down barriers for students and families and driving a 50% surge in program participation.
Upward Bound Counselor
Georgia Perimeter College 2008 – 2012
I provided exceptional college and career preparatory services to over 100 high school students by assisting high school students and their parents in completing college/scholarship applications, financial aid paperwork, mock interview, building resumes, and conducting workshops to prepare students for life after high school.
Guidance Counselor (Grades 6–8)
New York City Dept. of Education – Brooklyn, NY
2007 – 2008
I established the school’s first-ever guidance department — creating systems, policies, and a structure for student support from the ground up. I led individual and group counseling sessions that supported both academic progress and personal growth. I also launched peer mediation and student advisory programs to build a culture of trust, leadership, and positive school climate.
