BIO
Chantal Sheehan is the Founder and CEO of Blue Fox, an advisory and back office solutions firm designed specifically for the social sector. Blue Fox is on a mission to disrupt the traditional accounting model through technology, innovation, and a radically client-centered approach that truly empowers nonprofits and social enterprises. 
 
Chantal’s philosophy is that organizational sustainability can only be achieved through data driven decision-making, capacity building, and the ability to leverage all the resources at hand to communicate financial information in a meaningful way. “Key decision makers need to understand the story their numbers tell, and then learn how to listen. That’s where we come in,” she says.

As a recognized industry expert, Chantal is slated as keynote speaker at Nonprofit Hub's Cause Camp 2020 and was selected to speak at NTEN's Nonprofit Technology Conference 2020. She is an avid blogger that currently spices up the topic of financial management in publications for Bill.com, Bloomerang, Hive and Nonprofit Hub. 
 
Blue Fox clients refer to Chantal and her team as their financial right-hand, numbers guru, virtual CFO and trusted advisor. Since inception in 2015, the company has seen enormous growth, doubling or tripling their client base each year.
 
Chantal’s unique blend of experience in executive-level operations, financial management, and nonprofit leadership combine to make her vision a reality.
 
She received her MS in Management from SIT Graduate Institute, her Certified Financial Planner certificate from Northwestern University, and is a certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. She has over 15 years of executive-level experience in operations, accounting and marketing across the public, private and nonprofit sectors. View her full resume here. 
 
Chantal is passionate about volunteerism and has served in a diverse set of roles including:
  • Trustee for World Learning
  • Strategic Advisor for Thousand Currents (Formerly International Development Exchange)
  • Senior Advisor for New Global Citizens
  • Board Member of Café Impact (Formerly iOnPoverty)
  • Leadership Chair for Bonita Springs Area Chamber of Commerce
  • Associate Board Member for CREW Land & Water Trust
 
When she’s not on deck at Blue Fox, you’ll find Chantal reading up on leadership and entrepreneurship, along with the occasional mystery novel, enjoying life in her home state of sunny Florida outdoors somewhere, attempting to cook some new recipe, or relaxing with her husband and their 10 year old rescue pup, Lola.
