Michele’s journey as a fundraiser began as a youngster with a lemonade stand in her front yard to raise money for the local humane society. 2025 marks her 14th season on the APT Development team and she continues to be inspired daily by the generosity of the patrons who make the company’s exquisite storytelling possible. She has held administrative positions at theatres and theatre training programs around the country. Michele earned an MFA in Arts Administration from Brooklyn College and is a proud founding member of Renaissance Theaterworks in Milwaukee.
