Friends and Colleagues,

I am thrilled to announce that Aimee Sharpe has been promoted to a Senior Associate Director on the Academic Advancement team. Since joining Development as the Mendoza AAD in October 2023, Aimee has been an exceptional collaborator and thought partner for Development teammates and for Dean Martijn Cremers. In addition to continuing to advance Mendoza’s fundraising priorities, effective as of August 19, she will also take on supervisory responsibilities of the AAD vertical consisting of Steve Asiala, Kelly Courington, and Kate Mueller. I am excited for Aimee’s relationship-building skills, her characteristic hustle, and her enthusiasm for our shared mission to benefit our team in new ways.

The open AAD role serving the Division of Student Affairs and the Lucy Family Institute, which was previously posted as a Senior Associate Director position, will be releveled and will report to the soon-to-be-hired Senior Associate Director focusing on Financial Aid.

Please join me in congratulating Aimee on this well-deserved promotion!

Sincerely,
Matt Gelchion
