I first joined the St. Thomas Institutional Advancement team in 2010, holding positions in Planned Giving and then Donor Relations. As of March 2016, I have been thrilled to support the mission of the university as the assistant director of annual giving. In my role, I work with President’s Leadership Giving Society donors, student philanthropy programming, and young-alumni leadership philanthropy.
I am originally from Wisconsin and am a two-time alumna of St. Thomas. I received my undergraduate degree in political science and theology in 2005, and my master’s degree in leadership in student affairs in 2014. I have a passion for the university, our students and our amazing alumni!
In my free time, you can find me with friends and family, traveling, or just spending time with my dogs, Georgia and Grace.
