University of St. Thomas

I love working for the University of St. Thomas because it is dedicated to offering outstanding educational opportunities and helps to foster leadership, commitment and spiritual growth in our students. Personally, I’m grateful to St. Thomas for the outstanding education my daughters have received in undergraduate studies as well as at the law school.

As a senior-level gift officer, I work with alumni, parents and friends providing them with various avenues of sustained engagement at the university which ultimately lead to new funding opportunities that are meaningful for both the donor and the university.

My responsibilities are: working with a portfolio of donor prospects; raising funds for the recently acquired American Museum of Asmat Art and serving on its advisory committee; directing all aspects of the university’s Parent Network; and serving on the Internationalization of the University Committee and the St. Thomas Art Acquisitions Committee. Geographically, my prospect assignments cover Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, West Virginia and Arizona. 

Prior to working at St. Thomas, I worked in nonprofit management, in association work as a director of education, and with two grant-making foundations.

I enjoy gardening, travel, entertaining friends and spending time with my family.

I graduated from the University of South Dakota with a B.A. degree in history.
