Sandy Nichols

Senior Consultant

“At Plus Delta, we have the opportunity to partner with professionals who are lifelong learners and interested in expanding their skillset and refining their craft. Together, we discuss strategies that strengthen their skills and, often, their job satisfaction. Knowing we’re making a difference is very fulfilling.”

Sandy brings more than 20 years of fundraising and alumni engagement experience to Plus Delta and is inspired by working with those who are moving the mission of their organizations forward through philanthropy and engagement.

Prior to Plus Delta, Sandy spent fourteen years at her alma mater, The College of Wooster, in two different capacities; first as the Director of Alumni Relations and Annual Giving followed by her role as Director of Development. In these roles, she focused on raising individual gifts of $100,000 and above, and reunion giving for the 50th reunion classes.

In addition to her roles in higher education, Sandy spent several years in fundraising and event planning for the arts. At the New World Symphony, her focus included annual giving, meeting management, and events, both throughout the United States and overseas. During her time at the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Sandy held several roles within the Tanglewood Development Office – overseeing a team of staff and volunteers, annual giving, and membership fulfillment of the Tanglewood Friends program.

Sandy holds a master’s degree in non-profit leadership and management from Walden University and a bachelor’s degree in English from The College of Wooster. She serves on the Board of the Wooster Cemetery and is a member of Independent College Advancement Associates (ICAA).

Sandy and her husband Steve, live in Wooster, Ohio, with their cats, Flash and Patch. When they’re not working, they both enjoy sailing (and dreaming of owning their own boat, some day), hiking (Marble, Colorado is a favorite spot), a movie on occasion (only when it is dark and raining), and exploring the world.
