87: Martin Shell, Stanford University

On this episode of the RAISE podcast, Brent chats with an Advancement Great, Martin Shell. Martin serves as the Vice President and Chief External Relations Officer at Stanford University. If we had a word cloud for mentions on the previous 86 episodes of the podcast, the words “Martin” and “Shell” would be prominently displayed. Martin and Brent discuss the opportunities and mentors that brought Martin from the Log Cabin Democrat in Conway, Arkansas; to the office of Representative Ed Bethune in DC; and eventually to one of the most successful and sophisticated advancement shops in the world at Stanford.
