Embarking on a new chapter at the University at Albany, I leverage over a decade of experience in development and alumni relations. My mission is to enhance educational opportunities within the Massry School of Business, aligning with the university's culture of support and innovation. With competencies in major gifts and grant administration, my focus is on fostering growth and engagement that benefits students, faculty, and programs. At Penn State Wilkes-Barre, I orchestrated fundraising initiatives, embracing a strategic approach to meet the campus's current needs while paving the way for future innovations. Working alongside regional partners, I utilized my skills in major gift cultivation to expand philanthropic support, reflecting a deep commitment to the university's mission and vision. This role honed my ability to connect with diverse stakeholders and drive meaningful advancement in higher education.
