From that very first visit, Glenn found more than just a place to play. He found purpose. As a proud Club alumnus, he returned to serve the same organization that shaped him; working his way from Club to staff member and ultimately leading as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Tampa Bay for more than 20 years. Under his leadership, the organization expanded from just three locations to sixteen, extending its reach to thousands of kids and families across the region. Glenn’s belief was simple but profound: every young person deserves a safe place to belong, a mentor who believes in them, and an opportunity to grow. And he built a legacy around that belief.

In 1997, his heart for service and deep operational insight brought him to the national organization. As Senior Vice President of Services to Clubs for Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Glenn helped shape the future of the Movement for the next twelve years. He led national staff, fostered military partnerships, helped to open new Clubs in communities around the world, and championed systems to measure impact and elevate leadership development. Thanks to his vision, Club professionals across the country now benefit from training partnerships with institutions like Clemson University and the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business.
