Tiffany is most proud of her work with leadership programming.  In 2001, she was given the charge to implement the Northern Kentucky Leadership Institute (NKLI).  At this time, there was only one leadership organization that provided one advanced training for our students each year.  She grew this into three separate organizations that now provide 10-12 advanced leadership retreats/conferences for all NKU students.  She also built a service component into NKLI and was the first to begin tracking university-wide volunteerism hours for NKU. In the 2019-2020 year, her team tracked over 17,000 hours of service from our students that equated to over $334,000 of economic impact in Northern Kentucky.
