She eventually became one of the youngest high school principals in the NYCDOE and the turnaround principal/CEO for the first all girls charter high school in NYS. A decade later she became a full-time entrepreneur and has worked with a variety of industries spanning from education to healthcare, tech startups to financial services, law to nonprofits in health and human services and beyond.
