Background

About Star Grieser

Accomplished and mission-driven executive leader with 19 years of experience advancing professional standards, advocacy, and sustainable growth across the nonprofit and interpreter education sectors. I specialize in guiding organizations through transformative change, optimizing operations, strengthening financial stewardship, and fostering inclusive cultures that empower Deaf communities. As CEO of the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf, I led the organization through a pivotal recovery, driving strategic planning, governance reforms, stakeholder engagement, and operational revitalization. I bring a proven track record of building resilient teams, securing funding, and enhancing program effectiveness to elevate organizational impact. With expertise in budgeting, project management, and credentialing development, I champion initiatives that bridge education, advocacy, and community collaboration. I am committed to cultivating environments where growth, equity, and excellence thrive—and to advancing the sign language interpreting profession through visionary leadership.
