NEW (Nonprofit Enterprise at Work Inc.) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that has provided management and leadership development to the nonprofit sector since 1993 with offices in Ann Arbor and Detroit. My commitment to the social sector has always been strong, and by living and working in downtown Detroit, NEW has given me the opportunity to reach out, support, strengthen, and make a difference in the lives and communities of the nonprofit organizations we serve.
My career at NEW began as an intern under the CEO in 2009. I learned about internal operations related to social enterprise structures and management. In the summer of 2010 I transitioned into a Project Management role with regard to marketing and re-branding. Currently, I’m in the unique position of being one of a few conduits that train community members and corporate citizens how to serve on nonprofit boards as well as match their interests with the nonprofit’s needs. I’ve found through my facilitation experience with various types and sizes of boards and staff that both individuals and communities in Southeast Michigan can be characterized as innovative and resilient. I chose to live, work, and play in Detroit because I have the opportunity to contribute to and be a part of that culture.
