Danielle Kincs

I joined the University of St. Thomas Advancement team in December 2019. Since then, I have been excited and grateful to be able to work closely with faculty and staff to pursue funding opportunities and manage relationships with both local and national foundations in support of the university’s key programs and initiatives. 

I started my development career at New York University in 2012, where I served on the major gifts team for the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development for four years. I also have experience working for a variety of nonprofit organizations – both near and far from the Twin Cities – including Sesame Workshop; Playwrights’ Studio, Scotland; and the Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphonies (GTCYS).

I hold an undergraduate degree in Dramatic Writing from the New York University Tisch School of the Arts and a master’s degree in Theatre and Performance Studies from the University of Edinburgh. Originally from the Twin Cities, I attended Benilde-St. Margaret’s High School, which helped spark my love for writing and appreciation for Catholic education.
