New Enterpreneurs Foundation Director

(Community Matters) After reviewing 87 resumes, telephone interviews with 28 candidates and intensive interviewing of the 5 finalists by me, other staff members and two board members . . . . Leigh Christie is the Entrepreneurs Foundation’s new director of programs.

Leigh’s been running our Lemonade Day program the last four years and has surpassed her goals each year while staying on or under budget. Leigh’s a merit scholar who graduated summa cum laude from St Edwards, earned a legal degree from Seattle, rose quickly in her law firm and is returning full time to the labor force as her second child enters elementary school. She won the RISE social entrepreneur case competition last year.  She’s a dear family friend; I can’t wait to be working closely day to day.
