With over 38 years as a senior executive in the federal government, she has held leadership roles on the teams of congressional members, cabinet officials, and mayors.

Initially, CPI supported orphanages in Argentina, Africa, and Thailand, and later formed partnerships in two Sub-Saharan African countries to create educational opportunities for vulnerable youth at Charity Amoa Memorial School (CAMS) in Takoradi, Ghana, and New Beginnings Children's Village (NBV orphanage in Lusaka, Zambia.
