Prior, she devoted ten years of service to independent schools, during which she worked on several campaigns including a $10 million campaign for Rippowam Cisqua School of Bedford, N.Y. and a $6 million campaign for Lauralton Hall, a girls high school in Milford.
“I have thoroughly enjoyed stepping into my new role and getting to know Waveny’s many loyal friends and supporters,” said Curis. “I am inspired by our meaningful conversations and the evident level of support and generosity that Waveny receives from the community. As a fundraising professional, it’s highly rewarding to work for a mission-driven organization like Waveny, whose values are aligned so well with the needs and priorities of the community it serves.”
