I considered this the best job in the world. Helping others reach their potential. What could be better than that?Specifically, our goal was to increase the level of private sector funding to supplement available public funding to meet the goals of the Texas higher education strategic plan: now 60x30TX. In order to do this, I• identified potential partners whose strategic goals aligned closely with those of the Coordinating Board;• worked with these potential funding partners, the Commissioner of Higher Education, and Coordinating Board staff to propose ways in which the agency would use additional resources to effectively address our common goals; and• provided careful stewardship of private sector funds entrusted to the Coordinating Board, ensuring that they were invested in programs and activities as agreed to with our partners.With the vision and expertise provided by dedicated and hard-working staff at the Coordinating Board, and the commitment to higher education by numerous philanthropic partners, I helped secure over fifteen million dollars in private sector and competitive federal funding to improve underrepresented students' access to and completion of college.I left this job voluntarily (in order to retire from state employment) in excellent standing with a track record of success and excellent recommendations.
