  University of Texas at Arlington Alumni Association

  Dec 2012 - Mar 2014

  Assistant Director for Constituent Groups

  As the Assistant Director for Constituent Groups, I act as the liaison for all chapters and special interest alumni groups with the Association. In October 2013, I launched the Maverick Alumni Network series of lunches, breakfasts and networking events in key alumni markets including, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, Austin and Houston to bring in speakers from the University as well as notable alumni in each geographic area. During my tenure, average overall event attendance has risen by 25% and is on course to double in 2014. I've also instituted several processes and procedures for Chapter use to ensure transparency and clarity for everyone involved.You can't improve what you don't measure is a mantra I've begrudgingly come to live by; realizing "the proof is in the pudding" so to speak, If you don't know how well your outreach efforts are doing, why continue to do them? The outreach portion of our Alumni Relations program now has key metrics measured quarterly to determine if we're on the right track. As a member of the marketing team, I've submitted several successful ideas for social media engagement, advertising and scheduling. Due to these efforts the Association has seen an overall growth in social media presence and engagement of almost 75%. Show less
