MORE ABOUT ME

With a wealth of experience in fundraising, I am a results-driven professional adept at developing and implementing strategic initiatives to secure vital financial support for organizations. My expertise encompasses donor relationship cultivation, proposal crafting, and utilizing diverse fundraising channels, including major gifts and corporate partnerships. I excel in leveraging data-driven insights, fostering collaborative environments, and ensuring ethical fundraising practices. Committed to making a positive impact, I bring a proven track record of achieving fundraising goals and fostering lasting donor relationships.​ For over 12 years, I led a team of young communications professionals (not fundraisers), helping them better understand the unique needs and services of donors.  I worked to bring the lens of the Donor to our daily work, and ensure we are adaptive and responsive, while also meeting the needs of our organization and the community as a whole.  As VP, Philanthropy I was responsible for the development and management of the new business portfolio, bringing my special focus on "donor-centred" relationships and partnership cultivation into the organization.​​
