Our Team

Our Executive Committee is comprised of the Executive Leadership Team — our President and Vice President — who have governance powers and lead strategy, and Service Officers who drive the core functions of the organization. Among them, our Engagement Officers maintain vital connections as liaisons to Carolina’s individual schools and programs. Together, this dedicated team of alumni works to strengthen connections, deliver impactful programming, and build a thriving community for Carolina veterans — past, present, and future.
