Meet Hunter Bryant, NCPERS’ Education Program ManagerLast month, NCPERS welcomed Hunter Bryant as the latest addition to its team. Stepping into the newly created role of Education Program Manager, she will be leading the planning, delivery, and evaluation of all NCPERS educational programming.

“NCPERS has provided best-in-class education to the public pension community for decades, and we've recently expanded our in-person and virtual education programs to meet the growing demand. We're excited to have Hunter on board to help us optimize these educational offerings and best serve the evolving needs of public pension trustees, staff, and industry stakeholders,” said Hank Kim, executive director and counsel for NCPERS.

Q: Where are you from?
A:
I'm a proud native of St. Louis, Missouri. Go Cardinals and Go Chiefs!

Q: What will you be doing as NCPERS' first-ever Education Program Manager?
A: I'm excited to enhance our educational offerings for public pension professionals, ensuring they meet the needs of our community while also fostering its growth. My goal is to maintain our virtual and in-person programs' excellence and attract an even wider audience for future educational programs.

Q: Tell us a bit about your previous work experience.
A: Before joining NCPERS, I was the lead project manager with a membership organization in DC. I collaborated closely with stakeholders to drive research in higher education, including contributing to the research on advancing women leaders in higher education leadership roles. I also oversaw multiple legacy community groups and supported them in organizing large-scale convenings and virtual engagement opportunities with other higher education leaders and professionals.

Q: What are you looking forward to most in this new role? 
A: I am absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to not only grow existing educational programs but also to develop new programs that cater to the changing demands of our community!

Q: When you're not working on NCPERS educational programming, what do you enjoy doing?
A: Fun fact: I'm an budding artist. I picked up oil painting and pastel work during the early years of the pandemic and now have an at-home art studio. I spend my free time visiting art museums, my most recent visits being the Rubell Museum in Washington, DC and the PAAM in Provincetown, Massachusetts.

Q: How can members get in touch with you? 
A: Call me direct at 202-601-2449 or reach out by email at hunter@ncpers.org. Otherwise, catch me at the upcoming Annual Conference and Exhibition in Seattle!
