MBA Nonprofit Alum Joins Lifeworks NW!

Ted Rydmark has joined LifeWorks NW as a Practice Manager for its Northeast Portland site on MLK Jr. Blvd. LifeWorks NW is a leading Portland metro area nonprofit founded 55 years ago, delivering mental health, addiction, and prevention services for thousands of people annually – from infants and teens to adults and seniors.

As a practice manager, Ted will work closely with the clinical manager at the LifeWorks NW King site to implement elements of the new, integrated model toward objectives to drive efficient and cost effective operations resulting in strengthened clinician-client relationships and ultimately enhanced client wellbeing.

Ted earned an MBA in Nonprofit Management in 2015. A recipient of the Andy and Nancy Bryant Fellowship, he is committed to using his skills to help nonprofits innovate in a way that maintains a healthy community. Ted is a lifelong Oregonian with a deep love for coffee, beer, and all things operations.
