Organization Consultant
Linda built essential relationships with grantees as a program officer before retiring from the foundation in 2023. Now a consultant to the foundation, Linda is primarily responsible for our monthly newsletter and website, but “other duties as assigned” remain in her description of services to the foundation.
Linda brings over 30 years of experience in higher education. Her background includes technology operations and business process improvement. Before joining the foundation, Linda held various roles at the University of St. Thomas. Most recently, her role was associate vice president for administration. Her responsibilities included managing nonacademic administrative operations, technology, and organization development.
Linda graduated summa cum laude and phi beta kappa from the College of St. Catherine with a B.A. in organization communication. She earned a master’s degree in organization change and a doctorate in organization development from the University of St. Thomas.
She is determined to age gracefully in Shoreview, Minnesota, alongside her two lovable and equally aging pups. Linda has two grown children and three grandchildren. Her annual Gramma Cammp© has taken on a version that aligns with her now college-age grandchildren — and is still good for her soul.
