What I Do
I implement Park’s annual giving efforts by developing direct mail pieces for
our alumni, donors and friends of the university. I also work closely with our
alumni and current students to help bring their class gift initiatives to life.
My Park Story
I came to Park in 2009 after I moved to Kansas City. After working in museums
and cultural heritage centers in both Washington, DC, and Nashville, TN, I felt
the college life calling my name again. Knowing that my dream was always to
return to higher education as a career, I immediately set out looking for a
position that offered the right mix of creativity and philanthropy. I was lucky
enough to find that amazing combination here at Park. Now, I not only have the
opportunity to be artistic on a daily basis but I also know that my fund raising
efforts are helping to bring scholarships and enhanced academic opportunities to
students nationwide.
