President-Kyle Harnden
Kyle was born and
raised in Dublin, Ohio and after attending college at Miami University,
returned home to Columbus. Post college he has had the opportunity to
live in three great areas of town: Dublin, Grandview and now the Short
North. During his tenure at Miami he took advantage of the European
study abroad program while earning his degree in Business
Management. He has worked for his current employer, Cardinal Health,
for 4 years holding a number of positions. Currently, he works with the
Operational Excellence Department (Lean Six Sigma). His future vision
for Club
RED is to reaffirm
the benefit and need for an emergency response organization like the
American Red Cross in the young professional community.
He believes this is best
done by having an inclusive, fun environment where members can make an
immediate impact. Charitable organizations should not feel like labor
but instead be an enjoyable environment where young professionals can
meet new people and better their local community in the process.
When not at work you can find Kyle around Columbus playing softball, basketball, golf, or biking downtown. |
Vice President, Programming - Tiffany Christie
Tiffany was made aware of the opportunity to be involved in Club
RED due to the existing relationship between Delta Energy and the Red Cross. While Tiffany is newer to Club
RED,
she was actively involved in the focus groups and brainstorming
meetings that ultimately lead to the restructuring of the group. The
unique blend of professional and personal development opportunities, in
combination with volunteering and contributing to the mission of the Red
Cross is what motivated Tiffany to run for a chair position.
Tiffany is an Energy
Manager at Delta Energy, where she serves as a consultant to large
industrial natural gas consumers. She graduated from The Ohio State
University in 2005, receiving Bachelor's degrees in Business
Administration, as well as Spanish. |
Special Events Chair - Gregory Boone

Gregory, a
Columbus resident, received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business
Administration with a specialization in Finance from The Ohio State
University in 2008. He works at Delta Energy where he leads a team of
analysts who help to drive process efficiencies and customer
satisfaction.
Giving back and helping
those in need is very important to Gregory. At Delta, he also leads the
employee-run community service committee, and received the company's
volunteer of the year award this past year. The experiences gained while
being a part of this committee have been extremely rewarding, and he
plans to use this exposure to help further develop Club
RED into one of the premier young professional groups in Columbus.
Community Involvement Chair - Elizabeth Meere
Liz Meere has been involved with Club
RED since
joining in 2011. Currently she works as a Resource Planning Analyst for

Communications & Marketing Chair - Alison Pegg

Alison Pegg is
currently serving as Publicist for the Columbus Blue Jackets with an
emphasis on business and community initiatives and player publicity.

for Easy Columbus, an attract and retain initiative for college students
spearheaded by The Columbus Dispatch. A graduate of The Ohio State
University, she also serves on the Board of Directors of College of Arts

RED because of
her appreciation of the Red Cross as an organization that
is long-standing, international, non-profit, and helps the community in
need. The Red Cross is recognized worldwide, with the public aware of
the need for blood and disaster response. She believes that a challenge
for the organization is recruiting new donors and volunteers from the
younger generations.
