Staff Spotlight
Avery Howard
Senior Director of Donor Experience
What do you love most about your job?
The people at 自慰视频 really make working here special! The culture is something that I have raved about since I started almost a year and a half ago and I still have a positive view today. I am fortunate to work with colleagues that truly embody a collaborative spirit when it comes to work, but also care when it comes to each other personally.
What is a project you've worked on that made you think, "This is why I love what I do"?
Working in Donor Relations I have this thought many times. It's most true when I get to witness a donor interacting with the beneficiary of their support and the excitement they exude to see the impact they are able to make.
Lily Kane
Executive Director of Development, Operations and Special Projects
What do you love most about your job?
I love that our work provides the resources that enable students and faculty to pursue their dreams. The promise and potential of the folks on this campus is tremendous and I truly believe that the investments we secure are changing lives, and our society, for the better.
What is something you're passionate about outside of work?
Spending time in our incredible parks around Nashville, like Percy Warner, Edwin Warner, or Radnor.
What is a project you've worked on that made you think, "This is why I love what I do"?
Working with Randi to help the Institute of National Security team launch their fundraising strategy was definitely a highlight. The founding director, General Paul Nakasone (Ret.), served as Director of the NSA and Commander of U.S. Cyber Command. The opportunity to brief someone who has briefed several sitting presidents is pretty inspiring! Plus he's a great person.
