Elizabeth White, MBA, MIS began her career in international development at the World Bank. White earned a BS in political science from Oberlin College, an MBA from Harvard Business School, and a master's degree in international studies from Johns Hopkins University.

She is an advocate for older adults facing uncertain work and financial insecurity and the founder of [NUUage Coliving](https://www.nuuagecoliving.com/), an affordable shared housing venture for +55 older adults aging alone on moderate incomes. Her inspiration for NUUage grew out of her own experience with long-term unemployment and economic hardship, which she wrote about in her book "[55, Underemployed, and Faking Normal](https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/55-Underemployed-and-Faking-Normal/Elizabeth-White/9781501196836)" (Simon and Schuster).

Elizabeth is a featured speaker at conferences and workshops, including her widely acclaimed TED talk which has received over 2 million views.
