Maggie brings a unique understanding of how leadership, teamwork, and social dynamics converge to her work at Nvolv. She relies on these insights heavily as she helps to create and implement client programs, manage logistics, and provide overall project support for our client engagements.
Maggie holds a BA in Sociology from Colorado College in Colorado Springs. She has lived in Mumias, Kenya while working for the Western Organization for People Living with HIV/AIDS (WOPLAH) program, and traveled to Northern India to attend the National Outdoor Leadership School. In addition to her work at Nvolv, Maggie is a practicing doula and volunteers in the NICU at the NewYork-Presbyterian hospital in Brooklyn, New York, the city where she now lives.
Best moment of the year (so far)
I had my first client as a doula this summer, and I was with her when she delivered her first child!
Best purchase of this year (so far)
Canon AE-1 Film Camera. I’ve never shot film before this year, and now I am addicted. I love taking portraits—everyone looks better on film.
The place I’ll always call home
Colorado. I lived in Colorado for five years and spent the time exploring the state’s mountains, rivers, and ski towns.
An important moment in my career
I joined Bob and his team after finishing my undergraduate degree in sociology. My friends and family didn’t quite see the connection, but I find ways to apply my formal education to Nvolv’s work every day.
What I most love about my work
Meeting leaders who have a huge impact on their employees, their industries, and the world. It’s fascinating when I get a glimpse into how they think, make decisions, and lead their teams.
I got angry and then inspired to help make change when I read
“Just Mercy” by Bryan Stevenson.
