I have always wanted to help others and make a difference, which is why I've been drawn to the nonprofit sector. I began my career in nonprofit fundraising and enjoyed working with volunteers to raise funds for the organization. After earning my Master's degree in Public Administration, I transitioned to philanthropy and the role as the 'accidental techie', a self-taught database and website administrator. Becoming a Certified Salesforce Administrator allowed me to take my love of spreadsheets to a new level. I enjoy creating customizations and connecting data together to support our work and help our small staff be as effective as possible. After working in a philanthropy-supporting organization for twenty years, I am ready for a second act where I can use my skills and experience to support community impact, mental health and wellness for all.
