My Bui

(She/Her)

Senior Analyst

A puzzle enthusiast, My loves to bring together stories, data, and research to create the big picture. As a Senior Analyst, she gets to do just that – finding the answers to big questions and synthesizing it all together in a compelling and fact-based narrative for our clients. Rooted in a passion and desire to work on issues of youth development, racial and gender justice, and education equity, she has experience within the philanthropic and the education sector. She is excited by philanthropy that is community-centered and community-directed. She has worked as a Grants Manager at Chicago Beyond and Youthprise – organizations that pride themselves on being youth- and justice-focused, working alongside grantees as partners as opposed to funders. Prior to joining Building Impact, she was an Investment Manager with Charter School Growth Fund, supporting and investing in the nation’s best charter schools. My received her B.A. in Politics at Princeton University.

Fun Facts:

  • My loves to bake and her dream retirement is to open up a bakery and boutique toy store combined.
  • My knows a lot of random facts about various niche European toy brands, some might say it’s become an obsession. Ask her about the Maileg catalog next time you see her.
  • My is wildly unathletic despite almost getting her black belt in Taekwondo as a kid
