Osy Harrison spent the first part of her career in Financial Services, primarily focused on global operational risk sales, marketing, and project management for large corporate accounts. After her time in banking and corporate finance, Mrs. Harrison shifted her focus to the not-for-profit world. She worked part-time as the Business Manager for iRobinHood, Inc., an internet company whose mission is to create the world’s largest online giving community.
Mrs. Harrison is currently the East Coast Community Outreach Director for Mission Be, a non-profit whose mission is to bring mindfulness-based social emotional learning programs to schools as an antidote for stress, violence, bullying and addiction and thereby increase the number of thriving, happy and peaceful children in the world. She is particularly interested in having her children become more mindful so they can increase focus, concentration, be more present, and also develop self-regulation skills to manage stress and cultivate an outer expression of empathy. Mrs. Harrison volunteers, with her daughter, at a local shelter for woman in domestic violence situations.
Mrs. Harrison holds an M.B.A. from Fordham Graduate School and a B.A. from the University of Miami.
