Board of Directors

Jeanine Gamez

Member at Large

Jeanine Gamez is a seasoned finance executive with over 30 years of experience in retail and financial leadership. She brings deep expertise in strategic planning, governance, operational controls, and accounting. As a Finance Lead at Gap Inc., Jeanine has spearheaded initiatives that drive business transformation through
operational efficiency and financial discipline. Her current responsibilities include overseeing financial inventory, monthly close processes, reporting, control
management, and strategic decision-making.

Originally from San Francisco, Jeanine relocated to Albuquerque in 2001 after marrying her husband, Joe. They shared 21 years together before Joe tragically lost his life in a
cycling accident caused by a drunk driver. In the wake of this loss, Jeanine found healing and purpose through Camp Widow, an organization whose mission and
community profoundly impacted her journey.

Board Experience
Jeanine has served on the boards of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Arthritis Foundation, where she played a key role in fundraising efforts and gala event
planning. She brings a strong understanding of organizational mission alignment, a passion for community service, and a collaborative spirit to every board she joins.

Education
B.A. in Economics, University of California, Davis
M.B.A., University of New Mexico

Personal Interests
Outside of her professional life, Jeanine enjoys crafting, solving crossword puzzles, spending time outdoors, and cherishing moments with her two adult children, Sophie
and Zach.
