With over 27 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, I am a seasoned and passionate professional who specializes in events and donor relations. My mission is to advance the vision and goals of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF), a leading organization dedicated to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis and improving the lives of those affected by it. I bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the CFF team, as I have worked with various media outlets, sports networks, and athletic donors in the past.
I am responsible for planning, managing, and executing special events that raise funds and awareness for the CFF and its mission. I also manage volunteer and committee engagement, donor cultivation, grant and family foundation opportunities, individual gifts and corporate sponsorships. I collaborate with Foundation colleagues to exceed chapter goals and deliver impactful and memorable experiences for our donors.
I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of people with cystic fibrosis and their families, and I am proud to be part of the CFF team.
