Catherine Vaughan

Catherine Vaughan is Flippable's CEO and Co-Founder. She has focused her career on driving effectiveness in the social sector. After graduating from Harvard College, she started her career in nonprofit consulting at the Bridgespan Group. She then led strategy teams at Partners in Health in Rwanda, Teach for America, and the Ethiopian Agricultural Transformation Agency. While earning her an MBA at Stanford, Catherine worked with Jeff Raikes, the former CEO of the Gates Foundation, to develop a business plan for a data-driven philanthropy platform.↵↵In 2016, she left her management consulting job at McKinsey to join the Hillary Clinton campaign in Ohio. Having caught the political bug, Catherine resolved to apply her skills in data-driven philanthropy to the progressive movement. She and her teammates from the campaign launched flippable.org, an organization aiming to flip state legislature seats by driving grassroots dollars and volunteer time to the most competitive races. Flippable's content reaches 10M people per month and the organization has raised over half a million dollars in grassroots donations for Democratic candidates.↵
