Meet Our Team

The Division of University Advancement facilitates a Christ-centered and transformative experience for Azusa Pacific students by seeking funding for scholarships, programs, and endowments. These resources provide modern facilities, exceptional faculty-mentorship, and innovative programs. We build these resources by forming strong relationships with donors, alumni, parents, and friends.
