Bio
Jackie Richardson
Natalie is an energetic, passionate, and collaborative member of the Central Services team at the EMU Foundation. She consistently brings a positive attitude, solutions, and professionalism to every project she manages. She is also one of the first team members to lend a helping hand, offer guidance, and step up to any challenge presented to the Foundation. She truly moves our organization forward with thoughtful processes and thorough execution of tasks and duties.
Amanda Decker
I had the pleasure to work with Natalie for almost four years at the EMU Foundation and she is one of the hardest working individuals that I have worked with. She is a true asset to any team and gives 110 percent in everything that she does. Her creativity and attention to detail helped elevate the EMU Foundation's special events to a new level. Working with her was a true delight as we were able to build a great rapport with one another that allowed us to create amazing events for EMU donors. The professional relationship that I built with Natalie over the years is one that I look to emulate at my new position, as having someone you can rely on day in and day out that not only knows and understands the needs the organization but with your own job. I would trust Natalie with my job, knowing she always had my back and I would do the same for her. Trust me when I say that hiring Natalie is the best decision you will ever make.
