Title: Chief Executive Officer, Founder
Company: Golden Clover Inc.
Location: Naperville, IL United States

Analytical and detail-oriented, Patricia Anderson’s greatest strengths are strategizing and moving things forward. That’s why she is so perfect for the technology field she’s been serving for the past three decades. With such strong skills and additional background experience in e-commerce, Ms. Anderson decided to establish her own organization, Golden Clover Inc., to provide ways for nonprofit organizations and charities to use technology to find fundraising opportunities. This online platform she created really brings the ‘fun’ into fundraising.

Prior to founding Golden Clover Inc., however, Ms. Anderson served as the vice president at FTD, where she was responsible for managing the company’s websites. She considers her greatest accomplishment to be helping them grow $10 million into $300 million over a six-year period. Ms. Anderson was inspired along her journey by a tough chief information officer at FTD, who taught her to be successful in business, and a general manager at Apartments.com, who taught her to be a great leader. Looking forward, she hopes to impact the world with technological changes and innovation.

To prepare for her professional endeavors, Ms. Anderson earned a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Missouri University of Science and Technology in 1983. When she isn’t working, she enjoys biking, spinning, reading, and traveling. Ms. Anderson is also a member of The International Women’s Leadership Association, and would advise the younger generations to keep moving forward without dwelling on the past or making excuses.
