For immediate release
CapShift, an impact investing specialist firm, announced today the promotion of Liz Sessler to President and Chief Operating Officer. Liz will continue to build upon her leadership as a co-founder of CapShift and play an expanded role in the team’s strategic direction.
Since CapShift’s founding, Liz has played a pivotal role in its growth, serving over 45 private wealth and charitable firms, including ten of the top 15 donor-advised fund providers (by assets managed, CapShift internal data). Liz oversees and has built out CapShift’s technology product and client service functions, along with other key areas such as marketing and operations. In her new role, Liz will continue to build the team’s people and product strategies, while deepening CapShift’s commitment to product innovation and client success.
“Liz has been instrumental in shaping CapShift’s culture and strategic direction from day one, leveraging her unique experience building an impact investing technology platform,” said CapShift Co-Founder and CEO Adam Rein. “She has consistently been an invaluable leadership partner, bringing deep-rooted relationships across the impact sector and a strong mission-driven approach to everything she does. This promotion is a natural progression that recognizes the critical leadership she brings to CapShift every day.”
“I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built and am excited to continue working with our team, clients, and partners to accelerate the flow of capital to impact,” said Liz. “CapShift was founded on the belief that impact investing should be scalable and accessible across philanthropic and financial institutions — I’m energized by the opportunity to keep advancing that vision.”
Liz’s appointment comes as CapShift continues to expand its platform and partnerships across financial, charitable, and corporate institutions. CapShift has deepened its support across all asset classes and themes — including public and private, market-rate, and impact-first solutions — for wealth advisors and donor-advised fund providers, as well as family offices and foundations. As CapShift rolls out its first AI tools this year, the firm remains focused on scaling its reach and partnerships across the financial services ecosystem, delivering the tools and expertise needed to drive measurable change.
