Nathalie Apchin joined PEM in March 2016, coming from Harvard Medical School where she most recently served as interim chief financial officer. She was responsible for overseeing the school's $650 million budget, conducting analytical reporting, long-range and annual financial planning. During her tenure, Apchin led the medical school's accounting and research cost-analysis teams, developed a strategic procurement initiative, and stewarded the institution's $4 billion endowment fund.

A seasoned financial executive who has proven leadership in both the for-profit and nonprofit sectors, Apchin brings a high level of expertise and strategy to her role at PEM where she leads the comprehensive financial management and planning program. She joined the museum at a particularly exciting and ambitious juncture when PEM's landmark $650 million PEM Connect Campaign - which prioritizes endowment, innovation, and sustainability - was underway.

Apchin has degrees from Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Bordeaux and Carnegie Mellon University and is a Certified Management Accountant.
