Reed, Southface’s first director of development and communications from 2000-2006, most recently served as executive director of the American Institute of Architects, Georgia Association. A Certified Fund Raising Executive, Reed holds a master’s degree in nonprofit management from the Andrew Young School of Policy at Georgia State University (GSU).

“In addition to skills and experience in fundraising and communications, Marci brings to Southface a valuable professional network and a demonstrated knowledge of environmental and policy issues influencing the built environment,” said Dennis Creech, Southface co-founder and executive director. “I am thrilled to be returning to Southface at this stage of my career,” Reed said. “I was proud to be a part of its 25th anniversary re-branding. Now, ten years later, Southface is a more mature and complex organization. It is an honor to have been asked by Dennis and his team to help ensure Southface has essential resources and a strategic vision for years 36 and beyond.”
