MARCH/APRIL 2025 ■ 5 ■ WOLFPACK CLUB NEWS Where did you grow up? Roseville, Calif., 40 minutes north of Sacramento. What college did you graduate from? Saint Mary's College of Califor- nia. Go Gaels! What are your current respon- sibilities with the Wolfpack Club? I am the development coordinator for the major gifts team. I process all major gift closures for our front-line fundrais- ing staff. Recently, I have begun col- laborating with our Wolfpack Women organization to put on our first speed- mentoring event. What did you do before joining the Wolfpack Club? I was an intern at the Cardinal Athletic Fund at the Uni- versity of Louisville where I was earning my master's degree. How did you get started at the Wolfpack Club? When my intern- ship was coming to an end and I was job hunting, I applied for a job at Colorado State. My boss at the time connected me with a colleague who had just left Colorado State to be a fundraiser at the Wolfpack Club. I don't remember dis- cussing CSU on the call, only a great opportunity to be a part of the Wolfpack Club. I applied for my current job the next day! What's your favorite part of the job? My favorite part of this job is hear- ing the stories of lifelong Wolfpack fans. I love college athletics because of its impact on the community. It's inspiring how being a Wolfpack fan is a way of life here. It's not something I grew up with in California. Hobbies: Coaching lacrosse, read- ing, baking, spending time with my friends and family and traveling. Favorite TV show: "The West Wing." Favorite movie: "The Big Sick." Favorite musical artist: Taylor Swift. Favorite restaurant: Sassool.
