Christen Ng joined AVID in 2021 as the Vice President of Technology and Data. She is responsible for leading the Technology Service team in bringing the organization’s technology infrastructure, applications, and data/impact strategy to life. She has extensive experience in building systems and resources that leverage data-driven insights to drive efficacy in many nonprofit segments: healthcare, workforce development, arts education policy, and gender equity/DEI.

She has become highly skilled in organizational performance management, program assessment and evaluation, and outcomes measurement. This expertise has translated to millions of dollars in grants, local and national recognition/awards, changes in Chicago’s education policy, program models that have been scaled and replicated, and master class workshops and presentations in sharing proven solutions.

Christen holds an MBA in international business from Webster University and a bachelor’s degree in information systems from DePaul University. She has also served as Vice President on the board of the United Nations Association of Chicago and volunteered as a mentor for MIT’s Solve initiative.
