Two Named to UF Board of Trustees
The University of Findlay’s Board of Trustees welcomes two new members this fall: telecommunications industry executive Kim Stumpp M’96 and Blanchard Valley Health System technology leader Gulshan Mehta.
“The University of Findlay is blessed to welcome these two insightful, experienced, and ethical leaders who understand and believe in our mission to equip students for meaningful lives and productive careers,” UF President Katherine Fell, Ph.D., said.
Stumpp, of Findlay, is the director of client relations and marketing for Consortia Consulting Inc. that provides telecommunications consulting services to independent telephone companies across the United States. She also is an owner and current member of Consortia’s board of directors.
Previously, Stumpp served 17 years with the Benton Ridge Telephone Company, including as vice president and general manager. She is a past board member of the Ohio Telecom Association.
She holds a master’s degree in business administration from UF and a bachelor’s degree in accounting from the University of Toledo.
“Serving on the University of Findlay board is both an honor and a responsibility,” Stumpp said. “I have always had a passion for higher education and continuous learning, equipping students with faith-based opportunities. I look forward to being part of UF’s success for many years to come.”
She also is an elder for the College First Church of God in Findlay. Her extensive community involvement has included service on the boards for the Findlay Rotary, Century Health, Findlay-Hancock County United Way, Blanchard Valley Health System, and Hancock Leadership Alumni Association.
Two of her four children – Dr. Gwil Stumpp DPT ’17, and Leah Thines ’19 – are UF alumni.
Mehta, of Perrysburg, has served as the chief digital and information officer at Blanchard Valley Health System since October 2023. He also is president of TechniCore Clinical Engineering Services, a for-profit entity of Blanchard Valley Health System that provides biomedical engineering services to numerous hospitals and clinics in northwest Ohio.
He previously served as an executive at Oracle Corporation leading innovation, strategy, and service delivery for the information technology organization at Children’s National Hospital in Washington DC.
Mehta earned a bachelor of science in computer science from the University of Missouri, Columbia, and is currently working on a master’s degree in business administration at the University of Michigan.
Describing UF as “a beacon of excellence and opportunity,” Mehta said he is honored to join the UF Board of Trustees.
“Investing in education and healthcare is, above all, an investment in the future of our community,” he noted. “By integrating innovative technologies, we can empower students and faculty to drive meaningful growth and lasting impact for the community. I am eager to bring my experience to the University’s commitment to shaping the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow.”
