A Lafayette, Louisiana native, Rebecca Doucet has almost 20 years experience with non-profit organizations in academia, healthcare, and performing arts, advancing their missions through strategic marketing and development initiatives. Most notably, she was appointed to the Development Officer position for the AB Freeman School of Business at Tulane during its $100M Post-Katrina Rebuilding Fund campaign and its $650M “Promise of Distinction” capital campaign.

Doucet also served as the Development Director for the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana.

During her tenure with the ASO&C, she has launched two successful new initiatives, the Partners for Education Campaign in support of Do-Re-ME! and Overture magazine, while overseeing the organization’s fundraising and marketing plans.
