Biography

I joined the Internet Society as the Senior Director, Finance. Now, I am the Internet Society’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, leading the Finance team in financial reporting, annual audit, 990 filings, and all other corporate financial reporting.

Finance leads and supports our constituents—donors, volunteers, the board of trustees, and staff in all aspects of accounting and finance, including the development and management of budgets, preparation and presentation of financial reports, and preparation and coordination of regulatory filings. Finance is a dynamic group of people who work hard to achieve increased transparency and visibility of our financial statements and enhanced efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability in all Finance processes. 
 
We strive to provide timely and accurate financial data to stimulate sound business decisions. Our streamlined processes ease administrative and compliance burdens for our staff and help them focus on achieving the organization’s vision of “The Internet is For Everyone.”

I have 19 years of accounting and finance management experiences with various nonprofit organizations in Washington, D.C. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Financial Accounting from George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. I'm licensed to practice as a Certified Public Accountant in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

I spent most of my career with nonprofit organizations since mission-driven jobs inspire and motivate me. I live in Northern Virginia with my husband, son, and our rescue dog. I spend most of my personal time volunteering for my son’s marching band, at family gatherings with extended family in the area, or taking leisure hikes with my family, including our dog.
