Resuma Consulting was founded on the power of innovation through uncertainty.

Carmela Resuma previously served as an Executive Director, Chief of Staff, Operations Manager, College Professor, Development Director, and Strategic Advisor, working with equity-focused organizations.

She received her Master of Public Administration from New York University and her Bachelor of Arts in Social Justice Studies and Mathematics from Saint Elizabeth University.

In 2015, Carmela Resuma left a thriving career in New York City to pursue her dreams of working remotely while traveling the world. This was well before remote work was normalized, so unlike the web developers and graphic designers of the time, this social change advocate and educator needed to carve her own path, and Resuma Consulting was born.

Since then, Resuma Consulting has helped Fortune 500 companies use quantitative data to better serve their target market, engaged stakeholders and facilitated the strategic planning process for major universities and international NGOs, built teams so that businesses can scale their impact, and implemented strategies that exponentially increased funding for organizations.

Carmela is also a seasoned long-term traveler, proud mathlete, devoted mālama ‘āina volunteer, and has the uncanny ability to locate the best chocolate chip cookie in most major metropolitan areas.
