Throughout her careers in both corporate and academia, Anne has devoted her time to causes for which she has a passion, such as education (and literacy), hunger (and food insecurity) and financial "wellness". She has served on nonprofit boards of directors and been appointed to a local government board (Edmond Ground Transportation Committee).
