As Director of Communications and Marketing at the Community Foundation of the Ozarks, I help tell the stories of the donors, agency partners, affiliate foundations and initiatives of the CFO. I began working with the CFO in 2011, providing photography, design and other creative services, and joined the staff full-time in 2018. I grew up near Camdenton and have lived in the Ozarks for most of my life. I graduated with honors from Drury University with a degree in design arts and began my career at the Springfield Business Journal before transitioning to a period of full-time work as freelance creative professional. Before joining the CFO, I provided creative services to a number of nonprofit organizations, including Drury University, Springfield Art Museum, Watershed Committee of the Ozarks, Friends of the Garden, Ozark Greenways and James River Basin Partnership. I'm a member of Leadership Springfield Class 41 and enjoy exploring the hills and streams of the Ozarks through pinhole photography.
