For more than 20 years I have leveraged my strong New York City and West Coast ties and networks to drive growth, stability, and strength for communities and organizations such as the American Red Cross, Brooklyn Park Conservancy, the Guggenheim Museum, the New York Historical Society, the New York Studio School, and the Community Roots Charter School. I thrive on developing partnerships with companies, stakeholders, and officials; serving as an “ambassador” and “public face” to organizations and program efforts; and delivering creative donor events to help nonprofits, cities, and communities flourish.Reach out via LinkedIn to learn more!CAREER SNAPSHOT:▬▬▬▬✦ Positive Urban Change: Disaster Relief | Sustainable Planning | Art Outreach | Charter Schools✦ Outreach: Coned Brooklyn Bridge Park Program Center | Title 1 NYC Schools Art Programs✦ Patron & Donor Management: Women’s Leadership Circles | Guggenheim Patrons Circle ✦ Fundraising; $15M Gifts—Red Cross | $1M—Brooklyn Bridge Park | $400K—Arts | $100K—Autism Center
