About Robbie Gorman
I am a social impact oriented operations and strategy leader with over a decade of experience in building systems, managing teams, and driving organizational growth. As Director of Operations at The BRIX on The Fox, a family-run business, I have held multiple roles with a high degree of responsibility and ownership over excellence. My entrepreneurial approach has enabled me to build structure and processes from the ground up, ensuring the success of over 225 events annually across two venues.
Experience
Chief Philanthropy Officer
May 2025 — Present
I support the development and execution of ACT\'s philanthropy strategy, with a focus on building and strengthening foundation and corporate donor relationships. I\'m honored to be part of ACT’s leadership team, especially because ACT’s approach to philanthropy truly reflects its core values: rooted in deep community input and led by the people it serves.Our fundraising strategy starts with listening to understand the real needs of the community. From there, we build partnerships and design solutions together. Donors are invited in as collaborators to help bring these community-driven ideas to life, solutions like The Aspire Center for Workforce Innovation (https://acwichi.org/). It’s a model that works, and one I’m proud to champion.
