  Meet Our New Director of Development

  Please join us in welcoming Tiffany Norman, our new Director of Development, to the Tandem Friends community. Tiffany brings over 15 years of experience, most recently serving for almost four years as Director of Development for the local non-profit Building Goodness Foundation, where she oversaw the fundraising efforts, organized and ran all donor-related events, and managed volunteers and the donor database. 

  
  

  Tiffany came to Charlottesville from Texas, where she received her BA in Government and Spanish (she is bi-lingual) from The University of Texas at Austin. She worked for the Texas Classroom Teachers Association for nine years as Special Projects and Scholarship Program Coordinator, and served as Chief of Staff for a Texas state representative for two years. 

  
  

  Tiffany brings a strong sense of joy and enthusiasm to her new role, and is excited to connect to Tandem students and families and experience life on campus (she has already attended several school events and visited student classes). Stop by her office (just outside the Blue Room in the Main Building) to say hello and share your favorite things about Tandem. Welcome, Tiffany!
