Spotlight on Our Board
When Morgan Sullivan joined the foundation in 2014, he was adding an important responsibility to a life already packed with deep commitments to his family, his career, and the community. Professionally, Morgan is a senior managing director at JLL (formerly Jones Lang LaSalle) where he begins his twenty-fifth year. Close to home, Morgan is the chair of the Development and Impact Committee for the Montgomery College Foundation and is a member of the Golf and Tennis Committee, which, over the past few years, has been responsible for raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for unrestricted scholarships.
Reading the roster of Morgan’s volunteer commitments you wouldn’t think he has time to sleep, let alone juggle his professional responsibilities while remaining a committed family man. He’s the vice chair of Rockville Economic Development, Inc.; serves on the executive board of the National Capital Area Council of the Boys Scouts of America; and serves on the boards of directors for the Greater Washington Community Foundation, PEERLESS Rockville, Inc., and Christ Episcopal School. Additionally, he is a member of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Maryland Trust for Historic Preservation, the Potomac Conservancy, and the National Eagle Scout Association. Still, he is as focused on spending time with his wife and four children (ages 19, 18, 17, and 4) as he is on his community and his role at JLL. Undoubtedly, he is a board member quite deserving of our spotlight.
