Laura O’Sullivan New Program Director for Athletic Events & Stewardship

Dear colleagues:

I’d like to share a few staffing updates for the Special Events & Stewardship team. I am happy to announce that Laura O’Sullivan has been hired as the Program Director for Athletic Events & Stewardship. She will start her new role immediately, but will still serve Annual Giving Program until a new team member can be found. Laura has been at the University for four years, and is known for creating exceptional events and experiences for Recognition Society members, and for helping to execute the first Notre Dame Day. Before her tenure at Notre Dame, Laura served as the Director of Development & Executive Director of Southwestern Michigan College, and before that as the Executive Director of the March of Dimes. Her positivity and love of the University are contagious. Please join me in congratulating Laura.

With this change, we have an immediate opening for an Assistant Director of Special Events & Stewardship, mostly serving the Annual Giving Programs unit. This position will report directly to me, and will work closely with Amy Schell, Mark Naman, Rita Udvardy, and the Donor Experience team. Lastly, we are adding a new coordinator position to the overall team. Reporting directly to Cristi Ganyard, this coordinator will assist with stewardship activities as well as with events. If interested in either of these positions, please let us (and your manager) know asap.

Blessings for a Happy New Year!

Katherine Lane
