Speaker Bio
ARRANGER - LEARNER - INPUT - INDIVIDUALIZATION - RESPONSIBILITY
I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism with a minor in Gender Studies at the University of Montana-Missoula, and now have more than a decade of customer service experience, with a background in finance, development and communications.
As the Program Manager with Gonzaga University's Annual Campaign, I am responsible for executing a range of programs integral to growing the donor base to GU. I work closely with the Assistant Director of the Annual Campaign to coordinate and promote marketing and solicitations for Annual Campaign funds, the crowdfunding platform, student philanthropy program, and faculty and staff giving. In addition, I have the privilege of managing the student outreach team, which consists of 16 current GU students who communicate with alumni, parents and friends of the University in support of scholarships. It's beyond rewarding!!
Prior to joining Gonzaga, I had the privilege of working at Safe Passage Violence Prevention Center which serves survivors of intimate partner violence in the five northern counties of Idaho. Revamping fundraisers, donor relationship policies and procedures, and implementing a strategic fund development plan taught me more than I thought possible.
