Bio
As Director of the Office of Strategic Solutions, Hampton Sublett is responsible for directly bolstering the long-term financial sustainability of UC Davis by collaboratively identifying and implementing a broad range of initiatives. To that end, he assembles and guides cohorts of campus & system-wide executives and subject-matter experts through a multi-month exploration process aimed at generating multi-million dollar proposals for recurring cost savings/revenue and campus-wide efficiencies. Upon senior leadership approval of each portfolio, Hampton oversees the project managers to ensure successful implementation of each.
Although several of these initiatives will improve inter-departmental workflow, quality and communication, delivering greater value to the organization, $20 million in new, annual funding (revenue and savings) is forecast by June, 2023.
After nearly a decade that involved living in Europe twice, working for high-tech entrepreneurial start-ups in San Francisco and teaching, Hampton fulfilled one of his life’s goals of working for a higher education institution when he accepted a job at UC Davis in 2005. After leading teams of IT professionals and Project Managers for several years, Hampton was fortunate to be offered a unique position aimed at driving organization-wide change initiatives which has evolved into his current role, as stated above. Hampton earned his Bachelors from Boston University and his MBA from the University of San Francisco.
