She joined Mu Pi Chapter at Penn State Erie during spring 1994 of her freshman year, looking for activities that aligned with her accounting major. What she discovered was far more than a resume builder — she found a network of mentors, lifelong
friends and opportunities to lead. By her sophomore year, she was chairing the Awards and Scholarships Committee. As a junior, she stepped into the role of chapter president — a “quick path to leadership,” as she calls it —
gaining experience in decision-making, teamwork and resilience that would shape both her career and volunteer life.
After graduating in 1997, Brother Dixon returned to Philadelphia and helped establish a strong presence in the Philadelphia Alumni Chapter. Over a 15-year span, she served as President, Vice President, Secretary and Vice President–Chapter Operations,
helping the chapter thrive. She later served as District Director for multiple collegiate chapters and supported and drove the 2019 installation of Omega Chi Chapter at Drexel University.
Her involvement deepened after attending her first Grand Chapter Congress in 2001. That experience changed everything. She describes it as the moment the national scope of the Fraternity truly “clicked.” Since then, she has attended nearly
40 national events, and counts Congress as part of her regular vacation planning. Many members recognize her for leading the traditional “Rose of Deltasig” at Grand Chapter Congress and LEAD Provincial Conferences — a reflection
of her lifelong love of singing and her vibrant presence within the organization.
Today, much of Conchita’s focus is on the Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation, where she has served as a Trustee since 2021. She helps identify and mentor potential leaders, supports fundraising initiatives and works to ensure
scholarships and programming remain strong for future generations. She is particularly passionate about expanding diversity across the Leadership Foundation Board and strengthening corporate partnerships to create sustainable funding sources to ease
the burden on individual donors.
Coupled with her work in the Fraternity, she has built more than 25-year career in financial services. She has held roles with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA) and Vanguard, where she specializes in retirement education and
financial planning. A natural educator and presenter, she now provides virtual retirement workshops and guidance to 401(k) participants, helping individuals understand how saving and investing can create long-term security and choice. Brother Dixon
is especially passionate about encouraging open conversations around money — something previous generations often avoided — and empowering people to take control of their financial futures.
At her core, Conchita is a connector. She values mentorship, collaboration and staying adaptable as the needs of students and professionals evolve. Whether she’s advising clients, mentoring brothers, building Leadership Foundation strategy or leading
a room in song, she brings warmth, confidence and a genuine desire to help others succeed.
For her, Delta Sigma Pi isn’t just an organization — it’s part of her framework for life. And through her leadership in both the Fraternity and the Leadership Foundation, she is helping ensure that its impact continues for generations
to come.
