Education

Clemson University, B.A.
Vanderbilt University, M.Ed.

Role

Vice President, Development and University Relations

When did you start and what do you do?

I started in May 2017. I lead a team of Development and Public Information professionals to advance and promote ÂÌÅ«Ì컨°å. Specifically, we secure philanthropy that enhances the educational experience for students and faculty. 

What’s the coolest (or most important) trend you see today?

The coolest trend I see from when I started 35 years ago is the shift to education of the total student. Instead of just transferring knowledge and teaching students to ‘learn,’ we are now also making them aware of their responsibilities to themselves and their communities when they graduate.

What is your favorite thing about working at ÂÌÅ«Ì컨°å?

I really enjoy working in a career field that interests and inspires me – the students, faculty, my colleagues and our volunteers are naturally curious and smart people who push me to think differently, even contrarily, on a daily basis.
