He’s been a member of the organization since February 2019 when he originally joined as Director of Strategic Alliances. As Director, Cullen engaged allied organizations in efforts to advance the mission of AnitaB.org.Prior to joining AnitaB.org, Cullen served as the Managing Director of Computer Science for Teach For America.

In his spare time, you'll find Cullen enjoying the outdoors with his family -- hiking, cycling, and running — or cooking up a storm for his family (and his friends in the before times). It’s his life’s joy to dramatically read books for his toddler daughter. He also has an unhealthy obsession with Nebraska Cornhuskers football and love-hates fixing up his old house.
