BIOGRAPHY

Josh is driven to ensure all people can reach and express their full potential. That drive shapes with whom and how he partners, captures opportunity, and solves problems with organizations and leaders as an independent contractor.

For more than a decade prior, Josh served as EVP, Talent, Operations, & CFO at Teach For America (TFA) where he was responsible for ensuring the organization was simultaneously able to sustain its work and accelerate its impact via operating, resourcing, and talent strategies. Previously, he led TFA’s admissions team during a period of simultaneous corps growth, diversification, and strengthening.

He received his BA from Yale University in economics and international studies. He also earned his MST from Fordham University while he began his career teaching elementary school with TFA at PS138 in the Bronx. He lives in Atlanta with his wife Kerri and their two daughters, Maya and Camille.
