Terri McGinley

My business background has been focused on management consulting as a senior project manager; assisting fortune 500 companies in implementing finance and supply chain solutions, this involves managing and improving day-to-day activities of reporting supply chain and financial status of the business and supplier relationships as well as identifying strategic directions. I am an organized person and pride myself in follow-through when it comes to getting the job done 😊 I am a good communicator and active listener. It is important to know when to speak up and when to listen and learn, all required when working with community leaders and the UpDoNA board.

My husband and I moved to downtown Denver and the Spire over 13 years ago; we were living in Parker for almost 30 years and decided to downsize, reduce our “footprint” and live in a city where we can walk most places for entertainment, sports and day to day activities. We loved the city and took our time getting to know our surroundings and the local businesses; then COVID hit, and the city started to change, many businesses closed, crime increased and the homeless problem increased, it was a challenging time for us all. I decided I wanted to help and be a part of an organization that wants to help, I started working with UpDoNA as the lead for the social committee and a member of the membership committee. It was a good start. A few years ago, I started working with the Outreach committee; I publish articles and events on the UpDoNA website, and I post the monthly UpDoNA newsletter.

One of the goals that UpDoNA has is to work with our city leaders, businesses, and residents to find solutions to many of the issues that our residents face on a day-to-day basis; I want to be a part of this group that is actively working to address these problems. UpDoNA has been working through the goals and objectives it set forth back in 2021; as a new board member I want to be a part of the solution in improving our neighborhood. I am committed to getting the job done and I want to be part of the people who get involved and work with our community leaders. I hope we can have fun along the way!
