Where you live: Sacramento, CA

What you do: I am a certified fund development professional, currently working for a land conservation organization that partners with the ranching community to preserve working lands in California.

Your family: Married to artist Peter Foucault. No kids, but lots of spoiled nieces and nephews!

Other Yale volunteer work: I have been conducting alumni interviews for Yale ASC since 2010. Have also been serving as a Chapter Head for YaleWomen of Northern California since the beginning.

Something we might not know about you: Few know that I am a trained theatrical lighting designer – having taken advantage of undergrad access to the Drama School’s graduate lighting design coursework. Now I spend most of my time in the great outdoors, rather than the black box theaters of my youth.
