About Ann D.

My passion as a Salesforce Certified Nonprofit Cloud Consultant is to harness the power of technology to create scalable business processes that will expand nonprofits\' missions of doing good in the world. Nonprofits have to keep track of so many details to accomplish their missions. There is so much potential for the organizations to do more—but time can be wasted on grinding, error-prone data tracking on spreadsheets, post-it notes, or worse—in someone\'s head. My 20+ years of experience in nonprofit leadership & Certified Fundraising Executive credential give me a deep knowledge of how nonprofits work and the obstacles leaders face in accomplishing their missions. My computer science background and Salesforce consulting experience provide me the tools and strategies to build (or troubleshoot) the systems that bring their missions to life. And my love of learning propels me forward to keep seeking out the best solutions that will help my clients do even more good in the world.Here is what people say about working with me:\"You will be on top of my/our mind for any future Salesforce challenge – your work was outstanding, and your level of proactively communicating progress and helping us stay on top of things was incredible. I very much appreciate your excellence and style – thanks so much. It is hard to believe what a new world has opened up for [our organization].\"-Tanja, Senior Consultant and Partner, Amplify Partners\"Thanks for all you have done and continue to do for our organization! It is absolutely amazing how much more efficient and informed we have become as a result of the work you do with our Salesforce instance!\"-Sonya, Nonprofit Executive Director\"Ann has a quick, logical, and effective mind. She\'s a wizard at knowing what tools match what workflow and she\'s a great teacher to boot. Working with Ann brought a sense of calm and overall productivity to the myriad of complex systems that needed some detangling.\"-Wendy, Leadership Coach\"Ann is always researching best practices and the latest technology to help the team accomplish their fundraising goals. She is mission-focused, has a great heart, and will help everyone on her fundraising team unlock their potential.\"-Elizabeth, former employee\"Ann asks pointed questions that get you thinking about maximizing your time by getting organized in ways you thought were only for young, tech people. She is positive and confidence boosting and knows her stuff!\"-Laurisa, Executive Director
