Chris Beaman is the Director of Advancement & Communications for Kappa Delta Pi, International Honor Society in Education, with experience in fundraising, membership, marketing, component relations, strategic planning, and event planning. Chris believes that education is the path to a better future—both for the individual learner and our global society—and that our teachers are responsible for creating the future. In his free time, Chris serves his alma mater, Butler University, on the Young Alumni Board of Directors as Vice President, and he enjoys running, exploring new cities, and eating. Most of all, Chris is a fan of Reba McEntire and has seen her in concert more times than he will admit.
