With an engineer for a father and an English teacher for a mother, I was blessed with a unique mixture of analytical and creative thinking. Nextafter has proven a perfect place for me to cultivate both of these pursuits.In my CFO role, I have the pleasure of helping NextAfter maintain and grow a financially solid business that allows us to pursue our vision of unleashing the most generous generation in the history of the world. While budgeting, forecasting and analyzing may not be everyone's cup of tea, I enjoy these activities because I know that financial stability helps fuel our ability to inspire fundraisers all over the world.When it's time for my alter ego to take center stage, the Nonprofit Innovation & Optimization Summit (NIO Summit) has been the perfect place for me to feed my creative side. By combining the best content with an insane amount of fun, we've been able to orchestrate an event that has become a cornerstone in the nonprofit world for knowledge, sharing, networking and growth.In my years at NextAfter, I've been inspired by the tangible results and success stories our clients and event attendees achieve. While spreadsheets, flowcharts, and contracts are my daily tools, it's the stories of transformation, efficiency, and amplified impact that truly make my engine run.If you're ready to redefine what's possible in nonprofit digital fundraising and have a little fun while doing it, let's connect.Visit us online at www.nextafter.com or www.niosummit.com
