Relevant experience and qualifications
My experience in senior roles in the UN, UNICEF, IAEA, IMF, and IADB, as well as in the private sector, is highly relevant to the role of Director at UNFCU. As a CPA with an MBA in Finance and a BA in Economics and Business, I possess a solid foundation in financial management, governance, and strategic planning — core competencies that are crucial to provide sound oversight and ensure long-term financial stability for our credit union.
I am confident that my combination of financial acumen, strategic vision, and leadership experience will allow me to make a meaningful contribution to the continued success and growth of UNFCU.
Candidate statement
With 30 years of experience in financial management in the UN system, including as Controller of the UN in New York, in the private sector as a CPA, and as a UNFCU Board Director for the past 3 years, I recognize the importance of a strong, trustworthy, and responsive Credit Union that serves with excellence the unique needs of our members.
My understanding of member-centric financial solutions will enable me to contribute to the strategic direction of UNFCU and to drive our continued growth and success.
I am committed to ensuring that UNFCU remains a stable, dynamic, and forward-thinking institution, and I look forward to continue serving its members through the Board of Directors.
