Name: Art Mongillo

Position/Title: Program Manager, Community Engagement

Joined The Partnership:  September 2015

Hometown: New Haven, CT

College: Quinnipiac University  

Major: Mass Communications  

Favorite Children's Book: The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. Each time I’ve revisited it I have discovered a new theme.  

Favorite CT Restaurant: This one is hard--so many great choices in New Haven alone. Though my list is ever-changing as I discover new places, currently I’m a big fan of Caseus.

Things you cannot live without: I’m sad to admit its pizza. Having lived on Wooster Street for nine years, during which time I practically doubled in size, I’d have to give Sally’s Apizza the nod.

Greatest extravagance: I like clothing a little too much.

Best thing about working at The Partnership: Getting to meet and collaborate with amazing people who do great, meaningful work (which, sadly, often goes unheralded).
