Our office consists of a 6-member team whose focus, energy, and creativity are to enhance the event from the previous year and to raise money to support our mission.

I began my career at the American Lung Association in 2007 as a Development Manager working on the Trek Across Maine. I decided to apply for the job because I had been a volunteer for 3 years before my employment. I used to drive from home in Vermont each June. The event, the Trekkers and volunteers created such an experience for me as a volunteer; I was determined if there was a job opening, that I was applying for it – and I did! Here I am 15 years later still enjoying my job and the people that I meet in our communities and other states.
