A native Californian, and Oakland resident since 1999, Jill brings nearly 20 years of fundraising experience for a diversity of nonprofit organizations to City Hope. She holds degrees from Mills College (BA) and San Francisco State University (MPA), and has volunteered with the Association of Fundraising Professionals, local giving circles, and city-appointed grant-making boards. She is an alumnus of several leadership programs, including Coro’s Women in Leadership, LEAP Impact, and Leadership Oakland. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her partner, son, rescue dog, Shadow, eating tacos, traveling, and cheering on the Golden State Warriors (sometimes all at once!)
