As Wiki Education continues to expand in both capacity and impact, we’re excited to introduce two new staff members, Jordan Daly and Kelly Doyle Kim!
As Chief Administration and Financial Officer, Jordan works directly with Senior Leadership to build budgets, create financial forecasts, and make strategic recommendations, ensuring financial sustainability for our organization. Having owned two financial firms and served over 500 businesses in the Bay Area and beyond, Jordan brings a wealth of knowledge to her new role. Before joining our staff, Jordan worked with Wiki Education in a consulting capacity since 2016.
Jordan holds a BFA from University of California, Santa Cruz, where she focused on Intermedia Arts with a particular interest in Political Theory courses. Throughout her career in finance, Jordan has applied her background in philosophy, ethics and the duty of the arts to cultivate her holistic perspective towards organizational goals.
In her off-time, you can find Jordan in beautiful natural spaces on or around water – she loves to kayak, sail, swim, and spend time on the beach. Jordan also enjoys opportunities to build community by lending her professional skills to small businesses and upstarts.
Kelly Doyle Kim joins Wiki Education as Project Manager: Digital Heritage, focusing on the 250 by 2026 Campaign in our Wiki Scholars & Scientists program. In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, this new initiative will improve Wikipedia’s depth and coverage of American history. Kelly will work closely with our Scholars & Scientists team, the American Association for State and Local History, and other cultural heritage organizations and professionals throughout the project.
With over a decade of experience in the Wikimedia and GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) sectors, Kelly is deeply passionate about bridging gaps in the cultural narrative and ensuring that diverse voices are represented in the digital space.
Prior to joining Wiki Education, Kelly worked at the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum, where she focused on addressing Wikipedia’s gender gap and amplifying the achievements of women in the US. She also previously served as Community Manager for Democratic Commons at mySociety, Wikimedian in Residence for Gender Equity at West Virginia University Libraries, and as an instructor in our Wiki Scholars & Scientists program.
Outside of work, Kelly enjoys exploring new restaurants, crafting pottery in her garage studio, and spending time at the local beaches of Charleston, South Carolina, where she lives with her husband and daughter.
