I am confident she will do an excellent job cultivating relationships in our community on behalf of Carroll College,” said Michael Larkin, vice president for advancement. Dold will take over the reins from Gayle Agostinelli who has worked in the Carroll College Office of Institutional Advancement for 24 years, serving as the Director of Annual Giving for the past 16 years. “While we celebrate Gayle’s decision to enjoy life and her many activities and interests in retirement, her strong relationships with our alumni and Helena community will be a loss to the Carroll community.
