INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — The nonprofit Tahoe Fund has announced Deirdra Walsh, general manager and vice president of Northstar California Resort, has joined its Board of Directors. The Tahoe Fund supports environmental improvement projects in the Tahoe Basin that restore the forest, improve lake clarity, enhance outdoor recreation, and inspire greater stewardship of the natural environment.

Walsh oversees all year-round operations at Northstar, and as one of eight women leaders running resorts across the Vail Resorts portfolio, she is a champion of Vail Resort’s commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. She has already been instrumental on Tahoe Fund’s DEI committee and her new position on the Board will further support these efforts.

“We are thrilled to welcome Deirdra to the Tahoe Fund board,” said Allen Biaggi, Tahoe Fund board chair. “Her energy and commitment to the mission and goals of the Tahoe Fund are incredibly valuable to the ongoing success of the organization.”

Prior to joining Northstar in the spring of 2019, Walsh was an influential member of Park City Mountain’s senior leadership team in her role of Senior Director of Mountain Dining. During her tenure at Park City, Walsh had direct oversight of over a dozen mountain dining outlets and led several major capital improvement projects at the resort.
