Member Engagement Manager
As a nonprofit, membership-based organization, The Water Council is committed to convening, connecting and showcasing our 130 members from 11 U.S. states and 9 countries. In my new role as the member engagement manager, I’m responsible for developing, managing and supporting our member programs and services with a focus on growth and retention.
I joined The Water Council in 2021 after six years in development at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee. I hold a degree in business from Marquette University with a specialization in marketing and a minor in psychology. Prior to that, I was the communications director at The Faye McBeath Foundation, a private foundation that supported nonprofit organizations throughout greater Milwaukee.
I met my husband, Kevin, at Marquette and we’ve been married nearly 30 years. We have three grown children, Daniel, Will and Maggie. I love to travel, particularly to warm weather climates. The addition of beautiful coral reefs for scuba diving exploration is always a bonus.
I’m excited to learn more about our members! I intend to contact each member in the coming months, but if you’d like to talk before that, drop me a line at lmullen@thewatercouncil.com. We want to know how to serve our members best. I look forward to meeting you soon!
