Expertise

I am dedicated to making the world a better place through my work. I am committed to community, communications, and continual learning. Fundraising has given me entrée to the full breadth of the nonprofit sector from the arts to the environment to healthcare and social service to education. I enjoy using the insight that I’ve gained from these experiences to make connections and build relationships with others who wish to make a difference as well. I am valued for my expertise, forthright style, and reliability. I thrive in an environment where brainstorming, collaboration, courtesy, and humor are mainstays.

My clients have included the YMCA of Honolulu, The Merwin Conservancy, and Hawai‘i Food Bank and Kua O Ka Lā Charter School in partnership with The FundDevelopment Group.
