About Me

 
 

A deeper look at my background:

My fundraising career began in New York, working with organizations such as:

  • Corbin Hill Food Project (New York) — community-led food security

  • Starfish (New York/South Africa) — child welfare, HIV/AIDS support

  • The Adventure Project (New York/Kenya) — environmental & livelihoods

  • Greyston Foundation (New York) — workforce development & open hiring

These roles grounded me in community-centered development, donor psychology, and the power of storytelling in philanthropy.

At Cathedral High School in Boston, I managed donor portfolios, strengthened annual fundraising systems, co-led multimillion-dollar fundraising events, and supported the stewardship of a $68M endowment.

I hold a Master’s in Nonprofit Management from The New School in New York and a second Master’s in organizational studies. I now work with institutions in Kenya to design fundraising foundations that are strategic, relational, and sustainable.
