If anyone has ever had the pleasure of having some grand title while working for a non-profit, you understand that while the title may be meaningful to you (and your mom!), ultimately it means that you have done everything from stuffing envelopes to overseeing 1000 person events, to working on video production, fundraising campaigns, education curriculum, budgets, spreadsheets, putting together furniture, installing cubicle walls, packing and unpacking, representing your institution and “working the room.”
