She advises on financial management, governance and transparency. Her areas of focus include oversight of public school districts, care for older adults, criminal justice reform and student debt.

Paige previously served as a director on the Scranton School Board, overseeing a $160M budget and helping navigate the district's dual crises of financial distress and public mistrust.
