Alani Bass

Alani Bass is the Director of Strategic Initiatives at Marcy Lab and serves as a key strategic partner to the Executive Director, focusing on driving cross-functional projects and initiatives that align with our organization's goals and growth strategy. A strategist and generalist at heart, she has the ability to synthesize information and quickly build context to produce informed plans of action. Before joining the Marcy team, she led marketing at The Studio Museum in Harlem and content strategy at Madeo, an award-winning Brooklyn-based creative agency with a focus on social impact.

Alani is a native New Yorker who grew up in the Bronx, NY, and now has called Brooklyn home for the past 5 years. When not on campus, you can find her at the wheel in her neighborhood ceramics studio or people-watching at her favorite coffee shop. Her love for SZA is almost too much to handle, and her efforts to diversify her playlists are a losing battle!
