Bryon Knight
Position
Director, Corporate & Foundation Relations
It has been an honor to serve NNU in this position since 2008. As an alum from the class of 1997, I have a deep belief in the relevance and the necessity of Christian higher education. NNU was truly a transformative place that changed the trajectory of my life both personally and professionally. Earning a degree, meeting my wife (Karen) of 25 years, and four beautiful kids later, it was an easy decision to return and give back to my alma mater!
After earning a BA in Business Administration (Management), I spent more than 10 years in the business sector working for a fortune 500 company and then a local start-up that is highly successful today. Since returning to NNU, I completed a Developing Major Gifts certificate from the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Robinson Leadership Fellowship, NNU's LEAP Leadership program and some classes in NNU's MBA program.
My current role at NNU is uniquely rewarding as I have the opportunity to impact the University in a number of ways. From capital-building projects to academic program expansions, and sponsorships to student scholarships, it is my deep desire to help NNU become an even better place. But more importantly, for NNU to be attainable for ALL students!
