Thanks to Stephanie, development officers have an expert to go to when they need advice on helping donors with complex gift arrangements that benefit the University of North Dakota through the UND Alumni Association & Foundation. She specializes in planned giving, gift administration, donor funds, and related donor activities, and provides strategic leadership for her passionate and dedicated team of accountants and gift administrators – who she often refers to as family.
Steph is a busy mom of three – Sarah, Andrew, and Ryan – and loves watching her sons play hockey, soccer, and football with her husband Jason. She enjoys reading, cooking healthy meals, running, and biking.
During more than a decade of service to the UND Alumni Association & Foundation, Stephanie has become knowledgeable in gift types, endowments, scholarship administration, donor stewardship, and planned giving. A skilled collaborator, Stephanie serves as an important resource for both internal staff and University partners on annual reporting, planned gift marketing, fund training, and proposals.
