“Deena has been an invaluable partner in keeping CAIS running smoothly during a critical transition period. She stepped in seamlessly and ensured that operations, hiring, and financial processes stayed on track. She played a key role in hiring across multiple areas—including our COO, program manager, communications director, policy lead, and operations associate—helping us build a stronger team. She also handled complex HR challenges with professionalism and care.
Beyond that, Deena provided the stability and operational backbone we needed to keep moving forward, making sure nothing fell through the cracks. Her ability to step into a fast-moving organization and provide immediate structure and support has been a huge asset. I highly recommend her to any organization looking for experienced operational leadership.”
