Sarah Rothschild is the new executive director of the Wisconsin Medical Alumni Association (WMAA) at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, as of October 18, 2021.
Since 2014, Rothschild has been the director of constituent relations for the University of Virginia’s Medical Alumni Association and Medical School Foundation. There, she developed a program that constantly evolved to engage the school’s alumni, students, trainees and faculty. That evolution took on many forms, from developing virtual content to establishing targeted programming around common interest, identity or purpose.
Earlier, she served as the director for alumni relations at the University of Washington School of Medicine Alumni Association and has held other leadership roles in media relations, public affairs and alumni relations, including for the Association of American Medical Colleges Group on Institutional Advancement.
“I am thrilled to join the outstanding School of Medicine and Public Health community and lead the WMAA in engaging alumni and students for a lifetime. I am grateful for the strong traditions of the school and WMAA, and I look forward to creating new ones,” shares Rothschild.
Robert N. Golden, MD, dean of the School of Medicine and Public Health, notes, “The WMAA is the cornerstone of our strong and lasting relationships with our medical alumni. Sarah is an outstanding addition to the school and will help foster connections among our wonderful medical alumni and our students and faculty.”
