BOARD MEMBER EXTRAORDINAIRE

Mandy brings together a rare combination of strategic leadership, operational expertise, and a deep commitment to serving others. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a B.B.A., she has spent more than 20 years building a diverse career across operations, technology, product management, and general management.

Mandy's passion for giving back began at an early age and was strengthened through a transformative mission trip to Appalachia during her teenage years. That experience sparked a lifelong commitment to volunteering and community service, which continues to shape her personal and professional life today.

Beyond her career, Mandy is actively involved in her community, serving on multiple school boards and volunteering with organizations dedicated to helping others. She enjoys spending time with family and friends and taking long walks with her beloved dog.

Through her leadership, generosity, and dedication to service, Mandy helps advance the mission of Radical Generosity Chicago and inspire others to make a meaningful difference in their communities.

As a child, Kerry dreamed of becoming a toll booth worker so she could wish every traveler a cheerful "Happy Travels" as they passed by. That early desire to brighten someone's day foreshadowed a lifelong commitment to helping others.

For more than 25 years, Kerry has worked as a psychologist while serving on numerous school and community boards. She earned her B.A. from Saint Mary's College, her M.A. from Boston College, and her Ph.D. from Loyola University Chicago.

A passionate volunteer since childhood, Kerry loves bringing people together to make a meaningful difference in their communities. Through Radical Generosity Chicago, she is dedicated to connecting, motivating, and mobilizing individuals to support neighbors facing food and housing insecurity.

When she's not working or volunteering, Kerry enjoys spending time with family, friends, and pets, cheering on her children from the sidelines, practicing Pilates and Spin, attending concerts, and dancing to the music of the 1970s.
