Ami Aronson is a visionary activator, systems strategist, and spiritual catalyst rooted in six generations of family legacy in Washington, DC.

Meet Ami

Educated across Jerusalem, Amsterdam, and California and shaped by her global work in public health, Ami brings a cross-cultural, deeply human lens to everything she does. Her early work with organizations like Save the Children and the Women’s Aid Network sharpened her commitment to equity, especially for women’s rights and voice. Inspired by her mother’s call to live consciously and serve at the highest level, Ami developed a personal philosophy she calls Spiritual Capital—the idea that each of us holds unique, energetic value that can be invested toward collective good. 

Today, Ami is wrapping up her 18 years as Executive Director of the Bernstein Family Foundation, where she honored and evolved her grandfather Leo M. Bernstein’s legacy of philanthropic leadership. Through her proprietary Feminine Design Strategy, she guides the foundation —and the organizations it funds— to lead with intention, foster collaboration, and generate true systemic impact. She is now bringing this work to organizations and leaders looking to shift from extractive models to regenerative, soul-aligned ecosystems rooted in joy, truth, beauty, and belonging.

Catapult this moment to ensure we dream forward together.

I partner and consult with organizations and cultural institutions to meet this moment in time and support them to align their values with the future they desire. We are not stuck, we just need to re-imagine what’s possible.

Through my unique blend of guiding institutions from ego-driven to eco-driven, engaging in civil arts advocacy, and reimagining leadership ecosystems, together we will make a deeper impact.

When I think of the best combination of leadership, advocacy, and social entrepreneurship – Ami Aronson is one of very few individuals in my life that meet these combined attributes. Before I launched Zeal, Ami was one of the first champions who not only believed in me but shared thoughtful advice and tangible connections that allowed Zeal to realize its full potential. Ami works and fights tirelessly, if only we had more Ami’s in every part of our world…

Founder and Managing Partner, Zeal Capital Partner

Ami is a transformative force. Her grace, higher-order thinking and thoughtful net weaving are treasures — personally and for Nature Sacred. She lifts up all she is around.

Alden Stoner

CEO, Nature Sacred

Ami is amazingly authentic and angelic. She sees the light in everyone else genuinely, because of the light that emanates from within her. Her impact on my life directly, before I was globally recognized, has always been unconditionally given, so that I may stand on her shoulders to present my gifts to the world. Never asked me for anything in return, nor to compromise who I am as a human being and creative.

Halim Flowers

Writer and Activist, American Artists

Ami is a leader, extraordinarily smart and capable. She put our modest foundation on the map by involving herself with the community. She does her homework and makes things happen. She is a doer.

Ambassador Stuart Bernstein

President, The Bernstein Family Foundation

Ami is an authentic, visionary leader who has made remarkable contributions to our sector and our creative community. She possesses a rare combination of business acumen, an impressive artistic aperture, strategic thinking, and a deep commitment to democracy. Ami pushes the boundaries of the status quo. Her genius is a palpable incandescent light illuminating pathways for leaders.
