Dr. Albright is the President of the Charles Butt Foundation, a nonprofit organization pursuing a more equitable and prosperous future for all Texans through education and community partnerships. Before that, she served as President of Raise Your Hand Texas and Chair of the Department of Education at Trinity University. A lifelong devotee to improving education and connecting students to the world beyond the classroom, Dr. Albright was named the 2004 Texas High School Principal of the Year by the H-E-B Excellence in Education Awards when she was the school leader of the International School of the Americas.
