An accomplished nonprofit executive with 25+ years of leadership experience, I specialize in guiding mission-driven organizations that improve the lives of individuals, families, and communities. I currently serve as CEO of Kappa Delta Pi (KDP), the premier national association and honor society for educators, leading strategic planning, operations, fiscal management, program development, fundraising, and more for 20,000+ members and 675 chapters. Under my leadership, KDP earned the 2024 Association Innovation of the Year Award from ISAE.
Driven by a passion for growth and impact, I hold a Master of Public Affairs in Nonprofit Management from Indiana University and maintain certifications as a CFRE, CAE, and Certified Master Financial Coach. I’m also pursuing the AAip (Association Artificial Intelligence Professional) certification to stay at the forefront of innovation.
My core strengths include change management, revenue generation, systems development, staff leadership, DEI, partnership building, and performance measurement. I thrive on building collaborative teams and driving outcomes that leave a lasting legacy.
