In addition to her alma mater, Lisa’s work has supported campaigns at Ithaca College, UNC-Chapel Hill, Syracuse University and including the SU Orange Club, and she most recently held the post of Executive Director of the Onondaga Community College Foundation. Lisa has experience with annual giving, special events, major and planned giving, capital campaigns, corporate and foundation relations, 

In her spare time she enjoys traveling, running, yoga, cycling, and volunteering. Lisa served on the boards of the American Lung Association, the CNY Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, On Point for College, and is a current Trustee of the Community Library of Dewitt and Jamesville, and the Seward House Museum in her hometown of Auburn.
