A leader at the intersection of civil society and philanthropy, Sarah has both managed and advised others with extensive P&L responsibility and helped anchor leaders on purpose driven and focused work; philanthropically supported and revenue generating, yet always values centric. In her career, she has had the fortune to work across many areas – from global health to the health of our oceans, financial inclusion to open source technology, effective altruism to trust based philanthropy, to politics, international development policy, advocacy, and beyond.

Sarah currently serves as CAF America’s Chief Philanthropy Officer. In her role, she supports the teams leading our corporate, charity/social purpose and private donor services, external relations, advisory, product, marketing and communications, research & insights, and donor engagements with the shared goal to enable impactful giving globally. Before joining CAF America, Sarah spent three decades preoccupied with developing the relationship between philanthropic and social impact investors and the role they, the teams, and the systems and tools they support, come together to create an equitable world for us all.

She has been fortunate to be the trusted advisor to numerous social impact leaders, philanthropists, and civil society organizations in addition to serving in leadership roles at Kiva and Kiva Capital, The END Fund, The Center for Global Development, WaterAid, Vamos Mexico Foundation, and CCS Consulting. Previous to her career in philanthropy she worked in political media consulting and was a Peace Corps Volunteer.
