We are excited to announce that Tiffany Rodriguez-Lee has joined the Monk Botanical Gardens Team! She will help the Gardens continue to grow and connect the community with our mission as our first Development Director. “The Gardens is growing exponentially in programs, events, new gardens, and team members. Tiffany will be an essential team member helping to continue the Gardens’ development. Our ambition is to be one of the top five reasons to visit Wausau. Tiffany will help us reach that goal, ” says Darcie Howard, Executive Director.

Tiffany is from the Seattle area but has spent the last decade in Wausau, raising her three boys. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing & Communications. She is almost complete with her Master’s of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. Tiffany has spent the last six years in the non-profit industry. She worked in Membership Engagement at the Girl Scouts of the Northwestern Great Lakes and more recently served as the Wausau River District’s Assistant Director. Tiffany is a dedicated community member, serving on several boards and commissions, and has a passion for connecting people to the outdoors. She is excited to use that passion to connect the community to the Gardens and its mission in a meaningful way.

Tiffany loves time with her partner and children spent hiking, camping, and more. She also enjoys writing, painting, yoga, kayaking, and a good cup of local coffee.
