Jay Japra
Senior Director of Finance & Operations
Jay brings his entrepreneurial background, finance, and operational discipline to serve as the Senior Director of Finance and Operations at SRA. His work in early-stage startups provided the learning experience to build a strong finance and operational foundation and an inclusive culture with limited resources. He believes in operations; it’s important to have at least some context of what is happening across the organization to connect the dots between teams, understand potential consequences for everyone, and forge long-term policies and relationships that foster as much relevant cross-collaboration as possible. While this is his first full-time position in non-profits, he has served as a volunteer analyst at Green Streets Initiative, a youth mentor at Silver Lining Mentoring, and a direct mentor to students via Build and 10,000 Degrees.
