Favorite inspirational quote:

 “The more relaxed you are, the better you are at everything—the better you are with your loved ones, the better you are with enemies, the better you are at your job, the better you are with yourself.”

— Bill Murray

My fundraising story: I always knew I wanted to put my analytical and detail-oriented mind to work in my career. After university, I began working with nonprofit databases right away. Over the past decade+, I have worked with databases small and large in a myriad of international and domestic nonprofit spaces including Water.org, Habitat for Humanity, and CAMFED.

Why I care about helping nonprofits grow: Nonprofits give the world hope, a purpose, and a space to create solutions that otherwise seem unattainable. I am lucky to be able to use my passion and database skillset to enable the success of nonprofit missions.

Hobbies: Cooking, reading, creative writing, urban hiking with my two dogs

Unusual talent: I can turn my feet backward while I am still facing forward. (Yep, it looks as weird as it sounds!)
