Having lived very near the IBVM (Loretto Sisters Convent)community for twenty-seven years, Anne was first a donor, then volunteer. This unique beginning and relationship along with a background in business and event planning, women's education and philanthropy, led Anne to the this position in late 2009.

Since then Anne has launched online giving and other electronic media, increased marketing and volunteer efforts, cultivated new donors,increased direct mail and donor response rate, chaired and spoken at donor events for the IBVM. Her passion for people and life and love of God is evident in this ministry of fundraising as she believes we all have been called to share in what makes us whole and connected to one another.

Anne and her husband Don live in Wheaton, IL and have three adult children. She received her bachelors degree from Stephens College, Columbia, Missouri.
