Tacy Holliday
Biography
Experienced leader in strategy and operations with a passion for driving meaningful change. With a focus on human-centered leadership, I help organizations balance today’s demands with tomorrow’s possibilities, creating environments where teams thrive and innovation takes root.
I started my career in STEM education and worked my way from a math/science tutor to a learning center director and executive board member with the National College Learning Center Association. I got involved with Educause in 2013 as a member of the inaugural cohort of the Breakthrough Models Academy. After various staff and administrative roles in higher education, I pivoted to a technology services firm but have remained in higher education through teaching and committee roles at Montgomery College and, most recently, at University of Maryland Global Campus.
