Lance has spent his career helping mission-driven organizations navigate complex opportunities and challenges that touch programs, operations, management, sustainability, culture and strategy. Among these has been the Kapor Center, the Skoll Foundation, the San Francisco AIDS Foundation, the Pangaea Global AIDS Foundation and the Names Project Foundation.
Lance’s roles have included the entire ‘C-Suite’ – Chief Financial Officer, Chief Program Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Development Officer, and Chief Executive Officer. Perhaps it reflects that he can’t figure out where he fits, but the end result is a diverse set of experiences that inform a holistic and strategic perspective on organizational development and management.
When Lance is not at work, he can be found trying his best to prepare his twin teenagers for the complex 21st century life that awaits them, and volunteering for the board of the National AIDS Memorial
