Bettina McGimsey joined ESG in 2015. As the outreach and communications director, she works with students, alumni, and staff to build and enhance the ESG community, both socially and financially. She also serves as an ESG advisor and supervises ESG–PKG Center Fellows. With degrees in German literature from the University of Virginia (BA) and UMass/Amherst (MA) and an MBA from Simmons, Bettina has spent the bulk of her career helping organizations work in a healthy and positive way. She has two adult children with Michael Sortor ’84. In her free time, she loves to read, cook, bake, and walk—and someday she would like to get back to the study of literature and her own writing.
