Tyler McCormick recently joined BronxWorks as Chief of Staff and Strategy. She comes to the organization with many years of experience in social service. Born in Los Angeles, Tyler moved to New York to attend Barnard College and earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Art History and Visual Arts. However, she quickly realized her true passion was working in youth services and transitioned her career trajectory. Since then, Tyler has worked for Association to Benefit Children (ABC), NYC Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD), CAMBA, the Youth Development Institute (YDI), and Phipps Neighborhoods, in various leadership positions.
Early in her career, Tyler went back to school to expand her skills in youth service development. She earned a Master’s Degree in Science of Education with a focus on Community Based Learning from Bank Street College, as well as a Master’s in Youth Studies from the CUNY School of Professional Studies. Through various positions, Tyler discovered that she had a strong interest in professional development for human service workers and implemented systems for staff development and program growth. She also earned a Doctor of Education Degree from NYU Steinhardt’s Leadership and Innovation program. Most recently, Tyler was Chief Strategy and Integration Officer at Phipps Neighborhoods, where she led the organization’s development department, education and capacity building, data, evaluation and learning, and integration of services. After five years at Phipps, Tyler joined BronxWorks in 2025.
“I had a chance to speak with Eileen, and there was just something about this organization. The work, the spirit, the vision for the future of the agency, it all felt really inspiring.”
As Chief of Staff and Strategy at BronxWorks, Tyler has many responsibilities that support the operations and longevity of the organization. She views her role as a collaborator, bringing together her colleagues to find solutions to strengthen the organization’s impact. Her tasks include overseeing Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), evaluating and developing more efficient systems for agency operations, guiding the strategic planning process, and leading special projects, among others.
“Relationship building is so core to the work that I do and I’ve been so inspired by the staff I’ve met so far. They’re incredibly passionate about what they do, and it comes off within an instant of meeting them.”
Outside of work, Tyler loves to spend time outdoors with her partner and her dog. She has also recently found building Lego sets to be very relaxing.
