Manager of Training and Impact

I joined Compudopt in August 2021, when we were still a small but mighty team with just our Houston, Chicago, and National locations. I started as the Office Administrator for the National team, and one of my first major projects was organizing Oktoberfest—a large-scale Houston fundraiser that let me dive into logistics, storytelling, and creating an inspirational video. The following year, I was promoted to Executive Assistant to our CEO, Megan Steckly. As our team grew, a need emerged for dedicated staff onboarding. Now, as Manager of Training and Impact on the Impact Team, I ensure new staff feel confident and supported as they join Compudopt. I’m incredibly proud to contribute to our growth and the work that empowers our teams and the families we serve every day.

National Program Manager

As a Program Manager at Compudopt, I oversee the planning and coordination of laptop distribution events across various cities in partnership with community organizations. Our mission is to bridge the digital divide by providing underserved families with the technology they need to succeed in today’s digital world.

The work I do at Compudopt continues to inspire me every day. Each laptop we distribute brings opportunity, education, and connection, and I’m proud to be part of a team that is making a difference.

National Program Manager

If you had asked me 4 years ago where I thought I’d be today, I wouldn't have an answer. I was searching for something meaningful—something I could be proud of. Then I found Compudopt, and everything shifted. Their mission to “bridge the digital divide” hit close to home; it felt like they were speaking directly to my story. I started as a part-time Program Trainer, became a Program Coordinator, and now, as a national Program Manager, I’m able to make a broader impact, ensuring students I see a reflection of myself in, receive the resources they need to thrive and succeed. I recognize their curiosity and dreams—and know without support, we risk limiting future scientists, doctors, artists, and visionaries. Since joining Compudopt, I’ve grown in ways I never imagined and now have the privilege to help others reach their fullest potential.

Senior Manager of Data Analytics

I joined Compudopt as a Part-time Program Trainer in 2022 while working on my master’s in business analytics at University of Illinois - Chicago. Compudopt’s focus on direct service with devices and youth-focused after-school classes impressed me as I progressed to Program Manager for the Chicago area. The mission to equip and serve those in need aligned with my values, and I saw this as a place I could grow after completing my degree. Since graduating, I’ve applied my skills to further serve communities impacted by Compudopt, where I now work as Senior Data Analytics Manager on the Impact Team. In this role, I gather and share stories from device recipients, students, and partners. I’m excited to keep flourishing as we expand nationally and deliver innovative programs.
