Bio
Stephen Flowers
Heather is one of the most passionate people I have had the pleasure of working with. She has successfully taken all of her experiences and education, combined it with her drive and passion, and created a reputation that is one of relentlessness toward growing the lives and minds of students in Maine. She doesn't just add value to an organization's culture and bottom line but serves as a leader and backbone in the continuous development of said organization.

I had the pleasure of meeting Heather during the Masterpiece in Leadership class offered at Husson University. There are few people you meet in life that you know will be successful at whatever they apply themselves to, Heather is one of those people. She has tremendous drive and dedication to her job. When we first met she had just started her new position and by the end of the class she and her team had exceeded their fund raising goals by 150%. I didn't expect anything less.
