She has also been closely involved in FSG's research and client work with community foundations, including economic sustainability and donor behavior.

Having helped to establish FSG in Boston, Fay subsequently worked for McKinsey & Company in San Francisco, where she served both nonprofit and corporate clients before returning to FSG in 2002. Fay also worked with Harvard Business School professors Michael Porter and Allen Grossman on a research study entitled "Optimizing the Value of Philanthropy" that examined ways to increase foundation impact.

Responsible for UBS Warburg's investment strategy for Asian banks, she was ranked by Institutional Investor as one of the best equity research analysts in Asia.
