Torine Pasek, who worked in higher education fundraising at the University of Wisconsin and Northwestern University, now leads AHS advancement as the college’s senior director of development.

“I’m inspired by the work being done within AHS,” said Pasek, who joined the college March 16. “I feel the mission and goals align with my passion for health and addressing the most pressing and immediate needs in our communities.”

Pasek has more than 15 years of experience in higher education development, including advancement research, corporate relations, annual fund and major gifts.

She secured more than $52 million, primarily for faculty support, during her nine years at the University of Wisconsin Foundation, where she was senior director of development for the College of Letters & Science and the departments of economics and art history. She worked with faculty, administrators and board members in the university’s $4 billion-plus fundraising campaign.

At Northwestern, Pasek helped build a university-wide annual fund campaign and a reunion giving program that achieved an unprecedented 46% alumni participation.

Pasek earned a bachelor in history and French from Moravian College and a master’s in history from Loyola University Chicago.

She is also a member of the UIC Advancement Management Team and senior director of development for the Jane Addams College of Social Work.

“I’m thrilled to partner with talented faculty, campus leaders, and help drive the mission and vision of UIC forward,” she said.
