Nadine joined the Cultural Development Corporation in November 2001, bringing eight years of experience in arts management, program development and fundraising. In June 2007, Nadine took the lead on all Source fundraising activities. As Campaign Director, she is focused on the campaign to raise $3.5 million for the renovation and initial operations of Source – targeting leadership gifts, donor cultivation, marketing and communications strategies for the project, as well as special events.

As CuDC’s Development Director from 2003 – 2007, Nadine oversaw all CuDC fundraising activities, including foundation support, corporate sponsorship and individual donor cultivation. She also planned fundraising and cultivation events, including an annual gala and silent auction. From 2001 – 2003 she was a key contributor in the development of Flashpoint, its program, brand and image and led a $1 million capital campaign to raise funds for the incubator.

Before joining CuDC, Nadine was the Marketing Manager at Iconixx Web Development, where she helped define and implement corporate marketing plans, focusing on web development and branding strategies. From 1997 to 1999, Nadine worked at the Corcoran Gallery of Art as the Program Director for the WPA\Corcoran, a museum division promoting DC-area contemporary artists through exhibitions and community programs. In 1996, she was the Corcoran's Foundation and Government Relations Manager, responsible for identifying prospects for exhibitions, formulating fundraising strategies, and creating proposals. Nadine has also worked at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History.

Nadine has a Master's degree in Museum Studies with a focus on nonprofit administration and marketing from The George Washington University and a Bachelor of Arts in Art History, with high honors, from the University of Florida.
