Vice President for Advancement J. Michael Pressimone is pleased to announce new staffing in the university’s Office of Alumni, Donor, and Family Engagement.
“With a renewed commitment to fostering meaningful connections and a fresh, dynamic team in place, we are focused on enhancing the ways we engage with and celebrate our incredible alumni community,” Pressimone said. “We are thrilled to share updates on the leadership and new additions to our team as we look forward to an impactful year ahead.
Effective Jan. 1, Angela Nelson, ’19, began her tenure as the director of Alumni, Donor, and Family Engagement. She has served as the interim director since September, having stepped in at a critical time as fall alumni activities were in full swing. She previously served as the director of Donor Engagement and other roles in University Advancement.
She continues to demonstrate her love of Bonaventure, her alma mater, with enthusiasm and boundless energy. She has put together a new team for the Office of Alumni, Donor, and Family Engagement.
Dylan Biondo, ’21, a Jandoli School of Communication graduate, serves as the assistant director of Alumni Engagement. Biondo majored in Strategic Communication & Digital Media and minored in Business.
He is from Queens, New York, a long way from St. Bona-venture, but his pride for the school brought him back. He is an avid New York sports fan and is heavily involved in auto racing with his family in the summer months. Biondo will focus on fostering relationships with young alumni and current students and enhancing events and communications.
Amanda Hulbert was appointed assistant director of Donor Engagement. With a passion for relationship building and community engagement, Hulbert works to create meaningful connections between donors interested in supporting the university’s mission.
She holds a master’s degree in Adult Learning from Empire State University. As a lifelong Olean resident, she is dedicated to supporting her community through service as a Rotarian, teaching children’s art classes at the Tri-County Arts Council, and as a board member for the Twin Tiers Disc Golf Club. Hulbert is excited to work at St. Bonaventure, where she can combine her professional expertise, love for her community, and dedication to the university’s values to make a positive impact.
Pressimone said this talented team is eager to build on St. Bonaventure’s incredible foundation of spirit and pride.
“We deeply value the time and thoughtful feedback our alumni have provided through the recent alumni survey. Your insights are invaluable as we analyze the data and identify ways to serve you better,” he said. “Together, we will continue to strengthen the bonds that make St. Bona-venture so special. Thank you for your dedication to your alma mater.”
The St. Bonaventure Alumni Council and chapter leaders also play a vital role in fostering meaningful connections among our alumni community. This dedicated group of volunteers works tirelessly to support alumni engagement, plan events, and strengthen ties between Bonnies worldwide and their alma mater. We are grateful for their passion and commitment to keeping the Bonnie spirit alive.
