Longtime Redstone employees Stacey Chen and Max Dovala have recently been promoted to Principals at the firm.
Chen partners with clients to lead projects focused on education; gender, reproductive, and racial equity; and movement building. She is recognized for her work developing advocacy strategies and supporting coalitions for organizations such as the Collaborative for Gender & Reproductive Equity and has authored publications on movement-building and advocacy campaigns. In addition to leading Redstone’s California office, she co-founded the firm’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Justice (DEIJ) working group to spark discussions and thought leadership both across the firm and in client projects.
Dovala co-leads Redstone’s climate practice in addition to helping clients across a range of sectors in deepening their impact. Dovala has expanded new modeling efforts, bringing additional insights to the firm’s work on climate and energy. From his early days helping ClimateWorks manage its global funding, to addressing the climate impacts of palm oil in Indonesia, to supporting the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, Dovala’s creativity, passion, and commitment to addressing climate change has been long-standing.
Outstanding Leaders Driving Meaningful Change
Firm Director Jason Blau comments, “The work Stacey and her teams have done has not only consistently wowed senior leaders in the field but also made a concrete difference in the lives of the people we serve. I can’t wait to see what comes next.” Director Lee Green adds, “Max’s analysis and deep insights have helped direct hundreds of millions of dollars to particularly high value efforts to address climate change.”
In addition, Cordelia Tullous joined the firm’s leadership earlier this year as an Associate Principal, bringing her extensive experience leading nonprofit, public, and private organizations to the team. Additional firm promotions include Noha Kikhia to Project Manager and Jarrett Bell, Michael Chien, and Vikas Maturi as Associates.
With offices across the U.S., Redstone helps private foundations, nonprofits, and governments identify their highest-impact investments, track and learn from results, and continually improve their efforts to solve urgent social problems.
