As a Director of Development for the founding college of Oregon State University, the College of Agricultural Sciences, it is my honor to connect with and cultivate major donors to a diverse set of departments, programs, and research opportunities. I take pride in being able to help grow support for critical research, student programs, and scholarships. These gifts grow Oregon's economy, improve the lives of students, and help put dinner on the table for millions of Americans. I find joy in creating the perfect fit for every donor, ensuring that they are as excited about their impact as we are. If you are interested in learning more about the important work happening at OSU I would love to connect!
Was responsible for planning and implementing major parts of WWU Give Day, which raised over a million dollars each year I led it. I managed a portfolio of 500 mid-level donors, discovering, cultivating, and soliciting them up to major gifts. Additionally, I played a large role in our overall annual giving strategy.
I re-structured and branded the WWU Phonathon into a modern Engagement Center before I hired, trained and supervised a team of 30 student employees to increase the quality and quantity of communication with constituents and donors. I was also responsible for the university's crowdfunding efforts, through my management and strategy, I increased giving through the platform by over 400%.
