Karen McCaffrey has a BA in Economics from SUNY Oneonta and an MBA in Finance from St. John’s University. She spent years managing billions in fixed income portfolios for TIAA and later directed global treasury operations at Columbia University. After a long career in finance, she left the world of internal rates of return to direct a sexual assault victim services program in Suffolk County—because some of the most valuable investments can’t be measured on a balance sheet.

 

Mary Cyn is a burlesque performer, storyteller, writer, and visual artist who lives in New York City. She would like to thank her vagina for financing these things.

 

Pam Stepansky is a writer, stand-up comedian, and actor who splits her time between New York City and Puerto Rico. A mostly Jewish millennial from Long Island, she blends snark, sincerity, and joie de vivre into a creative perspective that’s as dazzled as it is befuddled by the facts of life. She lives with her husband, Adam, and their spirited tuxedo cat, Gumbo.
