Recognition

“I have been privileged to work with Michele for nearly 10 years and will miss her contagious spirit, dedication, hard work and enthusiasm. Under her leadership, the ASU Women & Philanthropy program has experienced a momentous increase in investors — currently at our highest level and nearly double the amount of annual grants to ASU. I am extremely grateful for Michele’s expert, tireless contributions to Women & Philanthropy.” 

—Dr. Sybil Francis,

ASU Foundation Women & Philanthropy Chair; Executive Director, Center for the Future of Arizona; wife of ASU President Michael Crow

 “Michele’s work is exceptional and her leadership remarkable. As director of Women & Philanthropy, she helped create a most successful program for ASU, the community and the entire state.”

—Jeanne L. Herberger,

“Michele deserves great thanks for all she did for the Women & Philanthropy organization, but I also greatly appreciate the support and encouragement she gave me in guiding me to establish my own scholarship fund at ASU. I would never have done it on my own, or even thought I could possibly do something like that, if it weren't for Michele’s support. She is truly making the community a better place.”

—Linda Redman,
