I am pleased to announce that Greg Gibbs has accepted our offer to be UC ANR's new Executive Director of Development Services. Greg succeeds Lorna Krkich, who retired on April 2.
Many of you likely already know Greg as he has served as the Director of Major Gifts at UC ANR since 2017. Greg brings more than 15 years of fund development expertise, with 11 years at UC Davis before joining UC ANR. Over the past few years, the Development Services team has been generating approximately $3 million to $5 million annually through new endowments, capital campaigns, giving days, and many other new donor relationships; and I am certain that Greg will continue to grow our overall fund-development strategies and capacity.
Greg transitioned into his new position on July 1, 2021, and I'd like to thank the Development Services team for sustaining the department and continuing their outstanding work during the recruitment period. Please join me in congratulating Greg on this well-deserved promotion.
Glenda Humiston
Vice President
