ParentChild+ continues to deepen board diversity and passion for early learning and family and caregiver support with two new members.
New York, NY, July 1, 2023. ParentChild+ is delighted to announce the appointment of two new members to its board of directors: Christine Choi and Hardik Shah. Christine is currently in product and business management and has deep experience with capital markets. Hardik brings expertise in strong executive leadership, strategic planning, and creative problem solving from his decades-long career within the banking and mortgage industry. Both members currently work at JP Morgan Chase & Co. With the addition of Christine and Hardik, the ParentChild+ board is now 25 members. Their terms began in March 2023.
Board President Jim Molloy noted that both Christine and Hardik have “a passion for early learning and a commitment to supporting families and communities seeking those critical first opportunities for children that start them on a path to school and life success. We are thrilled to have them join us!”
Christine is a self-described “global-minded working mother” whose interest in early learning and quality child care experiences has grown since having her child. She has seen first-hand the importance of early education and its impact on children’s healthy development. She is particularly interested in ensuring equal possibilities from the start for all children by strengthening early connections and opportunity no matter the circumstances.
Hardik is very passionate and has long been invested in creating “the next generation of leaders”. Hardik immigrated from India “with a dream for education and future opportunities” and has spent much of his career mentoring and supporting others to elevate their careers. He is eager to apply his talent for strategy, planning and program growth and development to broadening ParentChild+’s reach and impact.
Both Christine and Hardik are joining the board ready and eager to create and expand opportunities for ParentChild+ families.
Welcome aboard, Christine and Hardik!
