Amy McPherson | CEO & Founding Partner
​
I have worked in nonprofit finance for almost 25 years. I have an MBA from Columbia University.
​
I love working with the folks on the front line of nonprofit organizations. It is very rewarding to help build capacity in organizations so they can focus on their mission feeling empowered and supported by their financial information.
​
I feel fortunate to have such a shared sense of purpose with my AFC team members and our nonprofit partners which keeps me motivated every day.
​
Sometimes it's a challenge to balance our four core values, all of which matter deeply. I think transparency is the key to making the other three values work. Transparency allows all stakeholders to understand the information they are seeing in a deeper way than just looking at numbers. At AFC, we have shifted our internal focus to transparency, which has made accomplishing the other three goals easier.
​
When I'm not advising for change I'm playing outside. I am a member of an adult horse-back riding team and yoga-lover.

Trust is what matters most.
Michael Curry | Director of Operations
​
I joined Advisors for Change in 2015. From the management of production theater companies to developing annual production and project budgets of up to $27 million, I have seen it all. I promote a tight ship so that Advisors for Change is primed and ready when nonprofits turn to us for help.
​
My experience managing complex performing arts facilities and the technical elements of over 300 productions has given me a keen sense to share what is available for or needed to run effective and efficient nonprofits
​
I value transparency. It allows me to present to our partners new ways to deliver the financial solutions to all stakeholders, that make sense to the user.
​
Our team meetings are always about making our good better and our better best!
​
When I'm not advising for change I'm with my family. When Amy and I (we're married!) aren’t busy helping our two kids with homework and taking care of our other “kids” ( two dogs); we love Sunday football and family camping and vacation getaways.
