Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce that Craig Sharpe will be joining the Special Events & Stewardship team as the Director of Compliance & Stewardship Programs on Wednesday, December 7.

In this role, Craig will assume primary responsibility for developing a University-wide compliance function for donor-restricted funds, and will oversee the associated annual production of endowed reports. Alongside the other members of the Compliance & Stewardship Programs team, Craig will also play a vital role to strengthen partnerships within the department and across the University towards developing creative and sustainable best practices in stewardship.

For the past six years, Craig has been working within Notre Dame’s Office of General Counsel, most recently exercising oversight and enforcement of the University’s Conflict of Interest policy. Prior to joining the University in 2010, Craig spent a number of years in the mortgage industry and served in the U.S. Coast Guard. With significant experience in the areas of IT, reporting, and business process development and improvement (he is green belt-certified!), we know he will be an exceptional addition to the team!

Best,
Mary Fisher
