As the Development Director, Carol works directly with clients to provide legacy gifting program services.

Clients benefit from Carol’s hands-on experience after working 15 -years at WSKG, a public media station in the Greater Binghamton area, where she held a variety of positions, ultimately serving as Director of Leadership Giving. In that role she advanced the goals of the organization by establishing and nurturing relationships between the station and its supporters. As a believer that success is the result of innovation and strong teamwork, Carol engaged not only the Development Team, but the entire staff in experimenting in inventive fundraising.

Carol was twice elected to the national Board of the Public Radio Association of Development Officers and served as Treasurer. She was appointed to the PBS Development Advisory Board and was subsequently elected as Chairperson. Utilizing the skills and relationships built during her national service she has assisted public media organizations throughout the country to achieve their fundraising goals.

Being a champion for youth, Carol donates her time and talents to foster opportunities for their success. She serves on the Broome County Youth Bureau Advisory Board and on the Board of Directors of the Literacy Volunteers of Broome and Tioga Counties.
