MY LSU
Why did you choose to build a career with the LSU Foundation?
I believe in the power of higher education to change our world for the better. It
is a joy and an honor to support the students of LSU and the consequential research
and innovation produced by the University.
What does a typical day look like for you?
In the office, I spend my days learning how philanthropy can support the impactful
work of LSU students and faculty. On the road, I spend my days meeting with alumni,
learning about their experiences and passions at LSU, and sharing with them philanthropic
opportunities that promote excellence on our campus.
Tell us about your favorite work win or moment when you truly felt the impact of your
work.
When donors express to me how much joy and purpose they find in giving back to our
students – it’s a great feeling to facilitate that!
Where is your favorite place on campus?
The Quad when the azaleas are blooming.
