Kim Alfonso
CEO of Results One LLCKim Greenfield Alfonso, MBA, is a co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of
Results One LLC, a certified minority and women-owned small business located in
Washington, DC. Results One works with organizations to assist them in creating an
environment that embodies Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility. Results One
provides DEI Training, Disability Inclusion consulting and training, Mediation Services,
and Digital Accessibility testing and training tailored to the specific workplace and
industry. Our strength lies in our trainers, who are certified in their respective industries
but also have lived and personal experiences.
Her foray into the DEIA field began 22 years ago when my daughter was born. She
was born with Peters Anomaly, which resulted in her having limited vision and being a
braille reader and cane traveler. So, this topic of diversity, inclusion and accessibility is
personal to her as she has watched her daughter through the years struggle with online
accessibility issues (during school and college), applying for scholarships and internships,
accessing school materials, and most recently, trying to access a list of COVID testing
sites online that was inaccessible to her. No one is surprised that her mission is to create
an accessible and inclusive world where everyone is All In! For the past 20 years, she
has worked in the blindness arena on boards and parent organizations (Montgomery
County Commission for People with Disabilities, Maryland School for the Blind, the
D.C. Advisory Board for Special Education, and others), and spent 12 years as Chief
Operating Officer at the Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind.
Kim brings over 30 years of experience and knowledge in working with public,
private, state, local and federal governments in the Washington, DC Region. After a
successful career in the nonprofit and corporate arena, Kim is passionate about and
committed to working with nonprofits, corporations, and state, local and federal
governments to create a work environment that embraces diversity, equity, inclusion, and
accessibility. Kim knows that a diverse workforce is critical to the success of all
organizations, and inclusion and accessibility are the cornerstones of a productive
environment. Her advice is sought out as an expert in disability and accessibility as she
brings over 30 years of professional and personal experiences and knowledge to the table.
She is a fierce advocate for people with disabilities, especially since her daughter is
visually impaired, and has served on numerous boards and committees nationally and
locally advocating for people with disabilities.
Kim obtained both a bachelor’s in economics from the Wharton School of the
University of Pennsylvania and a master's degree in business administration (MBA) from
Northwestern University’s J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management.
A strong proponent of women’s rights and the disability community, she was
selected as one of the “Women Who Mean Business” by the Washington Business
Journal in 2014 and received the Mayor’s Washington Women of Excellence Award in
Leadership in 2015. She was also provided the Humanitarian Award by the Metro DC
Hispanic Contractors Association for her work as Founder of the “Closing the Gap Food
Insecurity Program for Undocumented Immigrants”.
