As the leader of annual giving at Boston University, Stephanie Quinn has made great strides and broken records in her short time as a development professional.

Stephanie initially came to BU as a student, receiving dual degrees in psychology and communications in 2009. After a brief stint working in the tech industry, her Terrier pride led her to reunite with her alma mater as a member of the Boston University Alumni Council in 2010. Three years later she joined BU’s annual giving team, responsible for engaging 327,000 global alumni along with tens of thousands of parents and friends of the university. Today she has risen in the ranks as a leader on a team of 13.

Stephanie has led several record-breaking years for BU’s Annual Giving program. As a result of her vision and execution, the annual fund has raised more than $22 million from over 50,000 donors in each of her years at the helm, and BU has reached over 10 percent participation in giving from its alumni.
