Chief Financial and Operations Officer
Akash Mangar joined All Our Kin as the Chief Financial and Operations Officer in 2021 and leads our Finance and Operations functions including Human Resources, Information Technology, and Facilities.

This is why the mission of All Our Kin resonates closely with him.

He holds an MBA in Management and Leadership from Dowling College and a BS in Accounting from Hunter College of the City University of New York.
