With 25 years of experience in non-profit, education, and grassroots organizing sectors, I provide a range of consulting and coaching services to non-profit organizations with the goal of building organizational capacity to achieve strong fundraising results year after year. I specialize in working with development directors and their teams at mid-sized non-profits who: - Struggle to leverage their board members to best effect with individual donors - Have the right staff in place, but can’t seem to unlock their team’s super-strengths - Find their organization’s fundraising goal is causing them stress and undermining confidence - Spend too much time in reactive mode and too little time on big picture strategy and planning. After managing KIPP NorCals’ $125 million growth campaign, I realized that more than anything I wanted to help other development directors tap into their strengths, hone the nuts and bolts of running a robust fundraising operation, and develop a confident mindset to raise more money so they can change the world.
