Solutions to help you accomplish your fierce goals

Solutions to help you accomplish your fierce goals.

 

It’s a fierce world.

I started my career as a political lobbyist for my alma mater Eastern Michigan University. After catching the political bug I jumped into the deep end as a political fundraiser and campaign staffer for campaigns (statehouse, statewide and local offices) in Ohio and Michigan. Then in 2005 I was recruited to transition into non-profit fundraising, serving key fundraising roles with Mid-Ohio Foodbank and Columbus State Community College.

Throughout my career I’ve helped organizations raise millions of dollars through a myriad of strategies including: individual and corporate major gifts, capital campaigns, grassroots house parties, corporate and workplace giving, online as well as through community and match campaigns. I’ve hit goals out of the park, I’ve come up short and I’ve made plans and adjusted- over and over again. I’ve traveled the state, spending time in boardrooms and union halls, backyard barbeques, and community rooms sharing good ideas and telling the story of great campaigns and fantastic organizations.

It’s this experience, passion and expertise I can bring to your organization.

I know how it goes. I know how hard you work. Fundraising isn’t easy. Campaigns aren’t easy. Getting the right people to listen to your cause isn’t easy.

This is a fierce world. You are in the trenches. I know how fierce you have to be.

I’m here to help you get there- to your big accomplishments. It’s hard work, but together we’ll create strategies and skill sets for you and your team to accomplish big things.

FUNDING

I can help you build strategies to connect with the donors you have and the donors you don’t. From event planning, grassroots, grasstops, capital campaigns, house parties, match campaigns, to call time; I’ve helped organizations raise millions.

Together we will consider the data you have and ensure that you are telling right story to your contributors or voters and building relationships that last.


STRATEGIC Projects

Campaigns are pressure cookers with a timer. I can help you focus and plan to get you where you want to be in a short timeline toward an end goal of victory.

Whether you need big picture strategic help or need someone to help make a non-profit or political project successful, I can help.

 


COALITION BUILDING & Advocacy

Coalition building and stakeholder engagement is vital to an organization’s success. Finding the right people to listen and understand your cause and carry your passion into the halls of power is critical. Policy can produce change on a scale many organizations cannot accomplish alone.

I can help connect you with the people that will champion your cause.
