Shari Dunn is currently the Executive Director for Dress for Success Oregon. But, she’s had a pretty wild ride getting there. She started working in legal aid after graduation, then moved into non-profit and foundation work. Then she somehow ended up on the Oprah show talking to Oprah and Gail about dating?!? She decided to pursue TV journalism (an old dream of hers), and funded her transition with her earnings from Who Wants to be a Millionaire, because - you know - obviously that’s what one does. After a long stint in TV journalism, she has now come back to the non-profit world in her current role.
