Sahee Abdelmomin is a strategy and operations consultant supporting the Contemplative-Based Resilience (CBR) initiative in its community development and sustainability strategy. She brings over a decade of experience designing programs that connect underserved communities with the resources and systems necessary for long-term holistic wellbeing and resilience.

Sahee’s commitment to holistic health began in the Cognitive Control and Psychopathology Lab at Washington University in St. Louis, where she worked directly with hundreds of individuals and families navigating depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. There, she designed systems to understand and improve whole-person health through community support networks and vocational interventions—experiences that shaped her understanding of how systemic conditions and relational support shape individual outcomes. She continued this community-centered work as a liaison for Syrian refugee families in St. Louis, developing pathways to employment, education, and social services.

These foundations led Sahee to a career building and scaling programs at the intersection of economic mobility and systems innovation. She has designed and deployed over $100 million in capital through initiatives spanning deep technology sectors, financial inclusion, and entrepreneurship support—including her recent work on Governor Wes Moore’s Innovation Team in Maryland, where she developed fintech partnerships to expand banking access for underserved communities, and at Tulsa Innovation Labs, where she launched health technology ventures and built coalitions of payers, providers, and tribal entities.

A yoga and meditation practitioner for over ten years, Sahee is energized by the opportunity to apply her strategic and operational expertise to CBR’s mission of making holistic resilience tools accessible to essential workers and communities experiencing high-stress chapters across the  country.
