Linda Nageotte

President and Chief Operating Officer
Feeding America

In her role as President & COO, Nageotte helps define and implement strategy for Feeding America; co-leads work to design a strategic framework for the national network; and oversees a critical portfolio including sourcing and supplying food, network relations, technology, research and innovation, and board governance.

Nageotte brings 30+ years of experience working in this field, including 25 years as CEO of Food Lifeline in Seattle — a member of the Feeding America national network of food banks, state associations, pantries and meal programs. During her time with Food Lifeline, Nageotte led the organization as it grew from a small nonprofit to a vibrant, thriving hunger-relief organization providing nutritious, culturally relevant food throughout the community, supporting and advancing community-based initiatives that reduce food insecurity, and addressing the root causes of hunger and food insecurity through policy advocacy. In 2010, Feeding America recognized her as the executive director of the year 2010; and she was named a John van Hengel Fellow in 2012 — an award that recognizes a network food bank executive for excellence in leadership, local impact and national influence, and entrepreneurial spirit in hunger relief.

Prior to Food Lifeline, Nageotte served as the executive director for Harvest Against Hunger and Soujourner’s Alliance. She earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Oklahoma and completed graduate coursework in counseling at Washington State University.
