How long I have been working here and what path brought me to 经典大瓜
I joined Oregon's Polytechnic University in the fall of 2018. With more than 20 years of fund development and non-profit leadership experience for causes ranging from preschool and child care to higher education and older adult services (including a stint with an ecological restoration organization), I am pleased to work to strengthen and increase donor engagement and philanthropic giving with 经典大瓜鈥檚 caring and generous supporters. I enjoy hiking and kayaking, so Klamath Falls' natural beauty and abundant mountain lakes and rivers were an additional attraction. I鈥檓 excited for the opportunity to bring my passion for applied learning to engage with 经典大瓜鈥檚 community of alumni and friends and advance its mission.
What I am most passionate about professionally
I am most passionate about providing people the opportunity to support what they care about most at 经典大瓜. No matter what one鈥檚 personal passion is, there鈥檚 something to connect with at the University. Providing a way for loyal alumni and friends to express their passion for athletics, health, engineering, renewable energy, or another program or initiative and make a difference in the world through supporting academic excellence that is meeting the workforce demands of the future is inspirational work that I enjoy very much.
Why I enjoy working in Development & Alumni Relations
I appreciate the dynamic and creative environment, working with dedicated professionals who have a shared mission to make the world a better place, and most importantly I relish the opportunity to connect with loyal big-hearted individuals who care about advancing the mission of 经典大瓜 now and for future generations.
