Please join us in welcoming Eva to her new role!

Eva brings both her personal and professional experiences to the role of Board Chair as she helps advance Project: VISION’s mission of empowering youth in Chicago’s Greater Chinatown community to reach their full potential.

She served as the founding Chief Strategy & Operations Officer at Chicago Beyond, where she helped deploy more than $50 million into community-led initiatives and reimagine how philanthropy supports equity and justice. Earlier in her career, she supported nonprofit healthcare systems on capital access as an investment banker at Barclays and led strategic, operational, and digital engagements across sectors, including financial services, healthcare, and education, as a management consultant at McKinsey & Company.

Today, Eva is building Origami Wealth, a social enterprise dedicated to helping nonprofit professionals achieve financial freedom by making wealth-building accessible, actionable, and values-aligned. She also partners with mission-driven leaders to navigate complex challenges and maximize their impact through her consultancy, Origami Impact.
