I am pleased to announce Patty Smith will begin serving as the Billing Coordinator for tickets/events in Individual and Institutional Giving effective July 8th. Patty will report directly to myself and provide support for ticketing and event management.  Her primary focus will be billing and distribution of tickets, parking passes and event tickets for university relations, assisting with events and special projects related to football (application coding, system upgrades and testing, media guide mailing, stadium location reviews, pep rally reception/development tailgate assistance, etc.), providing customer service for internal and external constituents, and assisting with data management and analysis for various events and ticketing.

Since 2005, Patty has served as an administrative assistant for regional development supporting Lynn Hubert and Bridget Moreno in the Midwest region.  She was elected several years ago to serve as the chair of the Staff Advisory Committee (SAC), which represents non-exempt staff to university leadership.  Prior to her career at Notre Dame, she was an executive assistant for six years at the National Committee on Planned Giving in Indianapolis. She has proven to be a team player and has great experience and knowledge of the department and current processes.  Her expertise and understanding of donor relationships and stewardship will transition seamlessly into this position and provide our team with ongoing proficiency.

Please join me in welcoming Patty to her new role.
