Board Emeritus
We are so thankful for the amazing contributions from our board members, who give their all to the nonprofits we serve.
MARK LINDSLEY
Mark has a deep knowledge of product management in the tech space, having worked two decades at Toyota Connected, Microsoft, Active Network, GameStop, RealPage and Armor. He is currently a Senior Product Manager at Capital One.
As a former Staff Sergeant of the United States Air Force, Mark is active in veterans' organizations, such as Team RWB, as well as other nonprofit organizations, such as Agile for Patriots. He is also active in the product management meetup community and Toastmasters.
He enjoys running and has completed 14 marathon and is training for #15, if his body holds up.
BILL RATTNER
Bill builds internal creative and user experience teams that help companies to build better products faster. Having led multiple international UX teams for many years, Bill most recently built out an Enterprise UX Team at RealPage in Dallas, TX. He is currently the Senior Director of User Experience at ExamSoft.
Building and operating an Enterprise UX Team across a 5,000+ person enterprise is exactly the type of challenge that energizes him. Building a team of natural collaborators who know when to take a step back and allow their teammates to shine and to continue to be life-long learners is what has brought us this amazing level of success and what will continue to allow us to deliver User Experience capabilities at scale across the entire enterprise.
Bill is also on the Board of Experience Driven in Dallas.
LISA RATTNER, LCSW
With over twenty years of experience and specialized training, Lisa Rattner is a licensed Clinical Social Worker serving women, families and couples. Lisa’s passion is helping women (and their relationships) break through strongholds and navigate through life’s challenges. Her goal is to help her clients find peace and joy while experiencing the fullness of their identities.
Lisa has a keen sensitivity toward those who are suffering with grief and loss associated with trauma. She was part of a team of clinicians who provided counseling to widows and families in a New Jersey community who lost loved ones during the September 11th terrorist attack - one of the most traumatic periods this country has ever experienced.
KEISHA WHALEY
Keisha is the founder of Brass Tacks Collective and BT Foundry, a hybrid creative experience agency in Dallas that offers a one year, paid apprenticeship to creatives entering the industry.
In conjunction with her work for the agency, Keisha is also deeply involved in the nonprofit community. She sits on the board of Union Coffee and over the course of the last 8 years, she and BTC have done creative work for Union, Café Momentum, the Commit Partnership, MPACT for Mankind, TeachDFW, For Oak Cliff, and many others.
Her biggest passions include social, racial, and gender equity, experiencing all the food, and being the one person living that knows more about The Golden Girls than Betty White.
