How Does the Postal Service Choose the Next Stamp? This Darden Grad Knows

“Picking a favorite stamp is like picking a favorite child, you can’t do that,” says Darden School of Business alumna Lisa Bobb-Semple (MBA ’02).

She would know better if anyone would.

Bobb-Semple, a veteran of the US Postal Service for nearly 20 years, was recently appointed as USPS Director of Stamp Services. In the new role, Bobb-Semple oversees the Postal Service’s national stamp program.

Her story is not only about stamps, but also a shared vision for connecting generations, preserving history and celebrating culture. Bobb-Semple attributes much of her success to the people and places that have surrounded and shaped her, highlighting her time at Darden.

The Darden Report caught up with Bobb-Semple to learn more about her vision, leadership style, and the experiences shaping her journey.
