Please welcome Corrie Patrick, who joins the Seminary Relations team on Monday, September 8 in the newly created data manager role. Corrie’s office will be located in BH213. One item to note as you’re introducing yourself to Corrie. Please note how her name is pronounced. Per Corrie, “it’s pronounced “Car-ee”—rhymes with “sorry”—not “Core-ee.” Here is a short bio on Corrie: “I grew up in South Carolina but have made Minnesota my home for over 20 years. I live in South Minneapolis with my husband, two sons, and a tortoise. I’ve been in the nonprofit fund development field for over 20 years as well, most recently at the Minnesota JCC. When I’m not chauffeuring my kids around, I like to read, see art and live music, go to Timberwolves games, and spend time with my neighbors.” Corrie initially will be focused on our gift and record entry and receipt processes. I will remain the point person for data exports and reports. Please welcome Corrie to Luther Seminary!
