MDF Employee Highlight Eric Sharpe
Eric Sharpe (Regional Director for Nebraska and South Dakota)
Eric – “My primary role at MDF is leading the charge in South Dakota and Nebraska as the Regional Director. I love the opportunities to grow the region and add new and innovative events to capture a new demographic of MDF supporters. Creating events in the “off season” outside of banquets has been incredibly successful in keeping MDF in the forefront of people’s minds during the summer. “
In addition to my regular RD duties of fundraising and membership growth, I have been given the additional role as contributing editor for the new website and the Kitchen Counter section of our magazine keeping my passion for food and drink alive and well. I am excited to be part of MDF and the trajectory of the organization and bringing a new energy and excitement to the Mule Deer Foundation.
