Ambassador Archives - First Tee

Meet newly elected First Tee – Silicon Valley (FTSV) Board Ambassador: Lorena Hathaway.

Lorena wants her journey to be a testament to the power of passion, perseverance, and continuous learning which is in direct alignment with FTSV’s mission.

Lorena shared “I honored to join FTSV as an Ambassador, knowing the profound difference it can make for kids and teens. Golf has always meant so much to me and my family and I’m thrilled to share my passion for the game and its values with the next generation – especially honesty. Teaching young players to be truthful and act with integrity both on and off the course, is a lesson that extends far beyond the game and builds a foundation for lifelong success.”

FTSV is grateful that Lorena is also donating her time as volunteer coach.

Lorena has over two decades of experience in B2B marketing creating and executing high-impact demand generation campaigns for technology products and services. She has recently held Marketing Directors positions at Televerde, DataStax, Fenris Digital, and Precisely proceeded by almost 9 years at Pitney Bowes.
