About
My name is Deborah Costa-Stone, and with 20+ years of experience in managing and facilitating educational programs, I am strategic, adaptable, and committed to driving impact through mission-driven work. I hold a BA from Stanford University and an MBA from Duke University, which have provided a solid foundation for my expertise in leadership development, program design, and strategic project management. Additionally, I completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training, which has further enriched my approach to mindfulness, leadership, and personal development.
Throughout my career, I have successfully worked with diverse, cross-cultural stakeholders across the globe, specializing in navigating complex challenges, synthesizing information, and delivering results across a variety of sectors. Passionate about helping organizations build high-performing teams, foster leadership, and implement meaningful change, I approach each project with a commitment to collaboration and excellence.
As a lifelong learner, I deeply value authenticity and the belief that true growth happens when people are free to explore and encouraged to show up as their authentic selves.
