The Development Debrief

28. Abigail Smitka: The Graveyard Shift


Listen Later

Happy 4th of July! In honor of the holiday weekend, I have decided to feature Abigail Smitka (Regional Director, Major Gifts at Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University)a close friend, confidant, and peer mentor.
July is always an opportunity to get grounded and reconnect with our motivations and goals. Abbie has always helped me get grounded—starting with my very first development job, working the graveyard shift at reunion weekend.

Our hope is that this episode will remind you of why you love your work and that it will draw you closer to the ones who have supported you the most.
