Why would someone choose to work with you?
My background spans over 25 years of diverse nonprofit and for-profit experiences in revenue generation, getting fantastic results even with limited resources. I know firsthand how it feels to carry the weight of a mission on your shoulders. And I understand the intricacies of leading a mission-driven organization; specifically, inspiring others to share your vision and get on board.

I am a Certified Fundraising Executive (CFRE), the only accredited certification in the nonprofit fundraising industry. I have an MBA in Marketing from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. I have built a diverse team of talented fundraising experts who get excellent results for our clients.

Fundraising is a skill you can learn. Donor Boom makes it fun.
