Over the past 20 years, I have built a career out of troubleshooting complex organizational challenges and aligning donor expectations with institutional priorities.My background spans the full spectrum of advancement, from securing $10M lead gifts and managing $40M capital campaigns to revitalizing stagnant planned giving programs and building 5-year operational roadmaps.
