Associate Vice President for Leadership and Institutional Giving
About

As Associate Vice President, I oversee three fundraising teams: our Leadership and Planned Giving team, the Leadership Annual Giving team, and the Corporate, Foundation, and Sponsored Research Support team. As frontline fundraisers and grants professionals, we advance the mission of the college and conservatory of music at Lawrence University by fostering transformational philanthropic partnerships with individuals and organizational donors. I serve as one of three AVPs on the leadership team of the Advancement division and as a senior staff member of the university.

Favorite Spot on campus

Although I do not have a favorite place at Lawrence, what I enjoy the most is strolling across campus on a crisp autumn or warm spring day... there is nothing else quite like it.
