What is your role at TLC? As Donor Engagement Associate, I ensure gifts received by TLC are processed accurately and promptly, making sure our members’ support can make the greatest impact. I also help advance TLC’s fundraising campaigns and donor stewardship strategy.
Favorite TLC Preserve? Swift Creek Bluffs Preserve is a deceptively unassuming slice of natural wonder that packs a lot into its 1.6 miles of trail – board walks, sandy creek banks, ephemeral ponds, and steep trail overlooks. It also holds special meaning for me thanks to great memories with friends, family, and my dog Starbuck.
