Before joining HOPE, Robbye was Director of Talent Retention Initiatives at the New Memphis Institute, a nonprofit with a mission to forge a more prosperous and vital Memphis, TN by attracting, developing, activating and retaining talent. She led a comprehensive strategy for activating and committing professionals to the continuous improvement of the city. Her responsibilities entailed cultivating partners and funders; building and managing a high-performing team; and developing, promoting and evaluating new and existing programs.

Robbye earned a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Southern California and Master’s degree at Vanderbilt University. She has lived in ten different cities, both in the US and abroad, and has loved each of them for their unique assets and perspectives on the world. This being said, she is glad to be back in the South where she was born and feels most at home.
