Matt Kershnar – New Cohort Project Manager

I am pleased to announce that Matt Kershnar has joined the NPOKI team, in the role of COHORT Project Manager.

Matt started his technology career at a healthcare dot com in San Francisco. After moving to New York City, he worked for NPower, a nonprofit whose mission is to help other nonprofits align their technology needs to their mission. As a project manager at NPower, he worked with dozens of nonprofits on projects ranging from project management for web and application development, to network infrastructure renewals. His clients included Community Access, Uncommon Schools, the Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP), Yorkville Common Pantry and Big Brothers Big Sisters. In 2006 he started Komodo Systems, which focuses on providing quality IT services to nonprofits in the New York City area. Matt has traveled to various countries in Europe, North Africa, Central America and Asia. In his free time you will find him at the Prospect Park Tennis Center, at a city mini-golf course, or stuffing his face at the great restaurants in New York City.

Matt Kershnar will project manage all aspects of COHORT implementation and integration for NPOKI members. His responsibilities will include project communications, vendor management, member liaison and user training & documentation. You can reach Matt at mkershnar@npoki.org. The addition of Matt’s extensive project management and client relations expertise will strengthen NPOKI and enable rigorous project management practices to be extended to the COHORT suite, as NPOKI members integrate this powerful portfolio management software into their organizations. Please join me in welcoming Matt to the NPOKI team.
