Mona earned her degree from the University of Alabama. She has joined Kristen Jackson and Holly Kennedy in the Department of Mission Advancement, part-time, to develop our alumni relations program and support outreach efforts for the Hettie Johnson Institute.

Mona has spent her career in nonprofit management, alumni relations, and fundraising. Having been retired for a year, she is now eager to begin working part-time at SVS. Most recently she worked at UAB School of Public Health (where she first met Dr. Fiveash) and previously worked with Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the American Heart Association, and West Dallas Community School. She believes that "When A Man Loves A Woman" and "Respect" are two of the greatest songs ever written, both of which were recorded in her hometown of Muscle Shoals. Mona enjoys gardening, traveling, reading on the beach, engaging in conversations, and, of course, college football.
