Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations
Danielle Kincs
Office: Terrence Murphy Hall
I joined the University of St. Thomas Advancement team in December 2019. Since then, I have worked closely with faculty and staff to pursue funding opportunities and manage relationships with local and national corporations and 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.
