2020 to Present

International Institute for the Brain (iBRAIN)

Director of Strategic Planning

A specialized special education program and research institution serving students with brain injuries and brain based disorders across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Washington DC.

During my tenure, iBRAIN tripled in size and launched new business lines, including a DC expansion and lateral moves into healthcare and general education. I led two organizational restructures, built the financial and operational models behind the growth, oversaw the dev and marketing teams, and helped shape external partnerships that changed what was possible for our students.

The most visible of those is our ExoAtlet collaboration, which has allowed students who use wheelchairs to walk for the first time, including on the red carpet at our 2025 Gala (covered by The New York Times). We were flying the plane while we built it, and we kept it in the air.
