Chief Financial Officer
Tammy Walser joined Pathways Youth and Family Services in January 2015 and currently serves as the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. Tammy brings more than 25 years experience of financial, business, and operations management experience in the private and nonprofit sectors to the Pathways team.
Tammy spent nearly 20 years as a key team member of two successful privately held, start-up medical device companies. When Tammy married and moved from San Antonio to the Texas Hill Country with her two children, she had an opportunity to work closer to home. After meeting Dan Johnson, the Founder and CEO of Pathways, she was inspired by his passion and energy for Pathways as well as his down-to-earth demeanor.
Currently, Tammy serves as the CFO and oversees the finance, payroll, human resources, IT, and business administration departments and staff. Her primary responsibilities include financial reporting, cash and debt management, annual state cost reporting, annual budgeting and financial forecasting, federal tax returns, annual financial audits, employee health and benefit plans, contracts, legal and corporate insurance, and risk management.
With over two decades of experience, Tammy has served past companies and continues to serve Pathways today as a dedicated team member and leader facing all the risks and challenges that an organization endures during the various stages of growth and development.
Tammy’s commitment to Pathways is largely due to the dedicated staff she has the privilege to work with. While her role does not involve regular interaction with the clients, Tammy knows that her work each day contributes in some way to transforming the lives of many children, youth, and families.
Family time is very important to Tammy. Her family enjoys spending their time in the beautiful Texas Hill Country as well as enjoying the relaxing Texas Gulf Coast. Walser’s family spends their time outdoors, whether it’s playing pickleball, swimming, riding bikes, or doing yard work but also have fun indoors playing family board games, watching movies, and cooking.
