Maria Prozinski

I recently joined the Friends School team as the Development and Community Engagement Director. My interview process with Friends School staff and board members was amazing. The belief in the school mission and children was very evident. I knew that I would be happy and excited If I was selected for the position and I look forward to being a part of the team!

I have led and been involved in all aspects of fundraising for over 25 years. For 11 years I served as a development director in a private preschool through 8th grade setting. My daughter and granddaughter live in Boulder and it will be so nice to live in the same community as they do.

I’m also looking forward to milder winters. The central Minnesota winters can be lengthy. I enjoy being outdoors. I especially like gardening and hiking. Since my siblings live in different states and Puerto Rico, it gives me an opportunity to travel to meet up with family.

Challenging minds. Nurturing spirits. Honoring individuality.
