She was a manager at McKinsey & Company and served clients in the healthcare and agriculture sectors. She has also served as Director of Operations at the Clinton Health Access Initiative, where she launched several field operations across Africa, including Lesotho, Swaziland, and Nigeria, and helped lead the organization's growth from a start-up into a global institution.
