Founder & Executive Director

I founded The Poston Foundation in 2020 and serve as its Executive Director. I built the organization's governance, compliance, fundraising, and operating infrastructure and now lead its programs, partnerships, communications, and institutional development.

Through the Foundation's Carolina Cares Initiative, I helped mobilize more than 50 volunteers and coordinate direct community outreach serving hundreds of Columbia-area residents.
