Natissa Kultan-Pfautz is currently serving as Interim Vice President for Advancement at Eastern University. She provides strategic leadership for all areas of University Advancement, including annual giving, capital projects, endowment initiatives, and alumni and family engagement. Natissa is grateful to partner with a dedicated Advancement team, along with colleagues across campus, in cultivating relationships and securing philanthropic support that strengthens Eastern today and for the future.

Since joining Eastern in 2006, Natissa has invested deeply in the life of the University. She earned her Master of Science in Nonprofit Management from Eastern, building upon her Bachelor of Science in Wellness and Biology from Taylor University in Upland, IN. Prior to her work at Eastern, she held various roles at other higher education institutions, gaining valuable experience in student development, leadership, and mission-driven service.

Natissa finds great joy in her work as it helps fulfill Eastern’s mission of faith, reason, and justice. She and her husband, Scott, share a love for family, faith, and community. Outside of work, she enjoys sports, the ocean and beach, and traveling—including time spent at Disney and cruising. She proudly supports the Eastern Eagles while remaining true to her Western Pennsylvania roots, cheering for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates.
