Senior Operations Manager, Wikimedia Foundation

About me

Prior to joining the Wikimedia Foundation I worked for nonprofits in Director of Operations and COO roles, helping them to think through strategic planning, evaluate and build program success, and develop financial, operational, and HR systems to more effectively achieve their missions. My professional work has focused mostly on tech, journalism, government accountability, and human rights.

I am interested in building teams and helping give them the tools they need to do work that matters. I’m also interested in experimenting in the kitchen, exploring new concert venues, and devouring curated playlists.

My work

As part of the Global Advocacy Team, I help manage team expansion, build and support systems and processes, and drive strategic planning to help the team in their work to promote and protect Wikipedia and participation in knowledge.

Disclaimer: I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, so edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
