Prior to KACF, Ms. Moon worked for World Vision, a humanitarian relief organization, and also spent several years working as the Consulting Manager of a Silicon Alley technology startup and as a Senior Management Consultant at PricewaterhouseCoopers.
The Revson Program is an unparalleled opportunity for committed New Yorkers to refuel-through conversations, classes, projects and reflection. For me, the Revson year provided a much-needed pause to assess the past and plan for the future, with guidance and support from the academic and activist communities. At the end of the year, I emerged stronger and clearer about my work goals, and personally more enriched and replenished by new relationships with colleagues and professors. With the Revson network and annual meetings to look forward to, the program keeps sustaining those of us working to make New York City a better place to live for all New Yorkers.
