“Frances has done a great job over the past five plus years of building her portfolio and moving mid-level donors through the development cycle to secure major gifts all within a large and very complex College of Arts and Sciences,” Associate Vice President for Development David Allen said. “She has positioned herself to sustain a higher level of fundraising success, taken on more leadership responsibilities, and earned the associate director of development position title.”

CAS Senior Director of Development Camille Epps said Allison is not only a valued friend and colleague but also a true collaborator. 

“She brings energy and genuine engagement to all interactions with alumni and donors. She is always ready to make the ask and has had tremendous success in securing major gifts and building her portfolio from mid-level prospects to major gift donors.  We are thrilled her work home is in the College of Arts and Sciences Advancement Office and that she has received this well-deserved recognition.”

We are grateful to CAS Dean Kecia M. Thomas, Ph.D., for her support of this promotion, which will benefit all of CAS. 

Congratulations, Frances!
