The Cleveland Museum of Natural History (CMNH) has announced two significant personnel updates. Wendy Esposito has joined the Museum’s Board of Directors. Esposito brings extensive experience in technology transactions and global business strategy from her role as Director & Senior Counsel for Innovation, Technology, and Global Business at Eaton Corporation.
Esposito cited the Museum’s commitment to science-based education and its role in disseminating factual information about environmental issues as motivations for her appointment. Concurrently, Melissa Santee, CMNH’s Chief Philanthropy Officer, has been recognized by Crain’s Cleveland Business as one of its Women of Influence for 2025. Santee has been instrumental in leading the Museum’s $150 million “Transforming the World of Discovery” campaign and expanding public access to the Museum’s offerings.
