Amanda Auger, Director of Finance

Pronouns: she/her/hers

Amanda approaches the systems of finance and accounting from a relational point of view, with the knowledge that every person has a different association to the language and methodology of finance based on personal or professional histories, accessibility, and issues of equity. She is actively involved in communities focused on rethinking economics and reforming the culturally uniform financial practices that perpetuate social, economic, and environmental injustices.

Amanda brings to IslandWood more than 16 years of finance and accounting leadership in the nonprofit and for-profit sectors, and a passion for working collaboratively in the service of public good. She finds purpose in creating order out of chaos and providing an accurate and meaningful exchange of critical financial information to inform the goals of the organization and contribute toward the best possible outcome.

Amanda has lived in the Pacific NW for nearly 20 years, and recently moved from Seattle to Bainbridge Island where she enjoys the abundance of trees, owls, frogs, and starry nights.
