About Kristen Farrell
Hi there. I am a mission-driven fundraising and marketing professional with 12 years of experience in relationship management, events, and storytelling roles. My experience spans education, trade associations, nonprofit environments, and private organizations. My specialties include event planning and management, corporate and foundation relations, grant writing, stewardship, committee management, board relations, database operations, marketing communications, and public relations. At heart, I am a planner who likes to be creative and solve problems.I am also a children\'s book author. In March 2023, I self-published my first book, Sweet Sounds of the Night, a bedtime story that sparks the imagination of young children to make nighttime noises fun.
