Alden Napier

THROUGH OTHERS’ EYES

● “I was first drawn to Alden for the way that he honored and respected everyone he came in contact with and the way that others respected him. In Alden’s eyes everyone is deserving of kindness and respect no matter what choices someone had made, or social class they had come from, no matter what set them apart from others.”

— Heather Napier

● “Alden’s world view is one focused through the eyes of the ultimate servant leader, Jesus. Loving God equates to loving people — all people. The nonprofit world has offered him a fulfilling springboard for immersion into a myriad of ways of helping others.”

— Jennifer Napier

● “Alden is a great communicator. He is an influencer. He has a great work ethic. He is loyal. He is passionate and compassionate. And, most importantly, he is a person of great faith.”

— Scott Richards

● “Alden is an excellent communicator and lightens the room he enters with his positive personality. He is able to engage with kids to senior citizens in an effective manner. He has the ability to cast a vision and gain support from key stakeholders.”

— Blair Johanson

● “Young people who worked for Alden loved him. He could get right in with them when it came to creativity and enthusiasm for a project but then would be highly organized as a project manager getting the ideas executed. Also, every time I’ve given him advice, Alden’s response is invariably, ‘That’s helpful. Teach me more.’ As a mentor, there is no greater reward than to get such a response from a student. It encourages me (and I’m sure others) to think about other advice and connections I can suggest that could advance his career and life.”
