We're Your Nonprofit Tiger Team

I’ve spent the majority of my career working in the nonprofit industry to enhance fundraising results. I’m eager to support you in your continued success as you grow your nonprofit and expand your mission. Outside of work, you’ll find me outdoors at the nearest beach, on a trail, or gardening at home in San Diego.

Daring pursuit: I once petted a cheetah.

As your dedicated storyteller and copywriter, I bring a decade-plus of direct appeal campaign experience to convert your audience into loyal donors or customers.

Favorite part of the gig: Telling compelling stories that make a positive impact.

I am passionate about helping you leverage Salesforce to better connect with your donors, volunteers, and partners as you grow. With a healthy addiction to learning and a degree in chemical engineering, I’m wired to find solutions.

International Navigator: I’ve leveraged the mass transportation system in 6 countries and 5 languages and survived to author this brief bio.

Allow me to ensure Salesforce works for you. I’m a systems thinker with a Bachelor’s in Business Management and Marketing, and I grasp the unique needs of nonprofits. I aim to empower you and your team to effectively manage fundraising, donor relations, program tracking, and more.

Culinary entrepreneur: I ran my own restaurant for 6 years in Arlington, TX. 

I bring over 20 years of experience delivering digital programs of work for large global brands. I love effective processes and establishing systems that empower teams to deliver impactful work.

Be more dog: I believe the world would be better if it was run by dogs! I became a qualified dog obedience trainer to help keep dogs out of shelters and in their forever homes.

With over a decade’s worth of nonprofit experience, I bring a steady approach to your growth and communications strategy. Together, we’ll help your donors feel seen and known as you widen your impact.  

Make good choices: If I have a choice in hot sauce, it’s always Tapatío over Cholula. Zero hesitation.

With 15 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, I help social impact-minded leaders like yourself develop and operationalize their marketing and communications strategies to rapidly scale revenue.

Claim to fame: I’ve eaten a meal in the same room as Amy Pohler, Pink, Jane Hamilton, Shia LaBeouf, and Tyra Banks. None of them asked for my autograph.

I help our team run like a well-oiled machine and keep everyone on their toes with my immaculate sock collection. I do a little bit of this, that, and everything in between.

Words to live by: "If you stay ready, you ain't got to GET ready!" -RuPaul

I strive to introduce my CauseMic teammates to as many mission-driven organizations as possible. A computer science engineer turned seasoned marketing strategist, I partner with our consultants to understand your challenges and communicate how our team can help you accelerate your growth.  

Pack Leader: My husband and I are the proud owners of five dogs and an excessive number of plushies. 

Designer, developer, and general dilettante—if you need it to be on a computer and/or look good, I've got your back.

We all make mistakes. Sometimes we learn from them: I've played saxophone in a ska band. More than once.

If you’re looking to acquire new supporters and drive results through paid media channels, I’m your guide and implementer. I’ve partnered with clients across the world with a variety of needs and budgets, and my primary goal is to help you reach yours.  

When I’m not optimizing campaigns: I am probably buried in a J.R.R. Tolkien novel or looking for someone to listen to my lecture on the history of Middle-earth. Any takers? 

I’m the glue. Translation: I’m your dedicated marketing project manager who ensures your marketing campaigns ⁠— everything from paid media to website redesigns — run smoothly and cohesively.

True confession: I may be mildly lactose intolerant, but pizza is a lifestyle choice.

With an extensive background in nonprofit development operations, I'm dedicated to making sure your needs are met as we move from your Scale Session to your Rapid Growth Plan. In the background, I work to make sure your needs are met without exceeding your budget.  

Sharks as pets? I named my dog Finley so I could call her "Fin" — I love sharks! 

I should have more arms for keeping all the balls in the air, but amazingly, I only have two, which it turns out is enough to manage accounting, HR, and operations to ensure you get the best of everything our team has to offer.

After-work hobby: I volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America.

Just call me your “technology wizard.” From Salesforce and beyond, I manage end-to-end CRM migrations, ESP implementations, integrations of all sorts and for all manner of systems, all the way up to full-scale digital transformation for organizations like yours.

Formerly known as: My nickname in college was Ruthless and Toothless.

I lead our team of consultants and specialists who implement technology solutions and processes that will enable your organization to quickly and effectively grow. I’ve been entrenched in several roles within the nonprofit sector - from finance to support operations to reporting - and I can partner with you to smoothly carry out organizational change.  

Footloose: When I’m not ballroom dancing, you’ll find this Oregonian in the great outdoors, ideally with my grandson.

I’m a builder and doer with a track record of helping nonprofit leaders quickly grow revenue past the $10M mark.

My most productive hour: 5 AM

I specialize in accelerating your growth through targeted fundraising and technology solutions. I’ve spent my entire career in the nonprofit sector, and I understand the challenges you face: a never-ending list of needs and limited time. That's where we step in.

Resolute stance: Harry Potter owes everything to Hermoine Granger.

I take the axe to corporate-y buzzwords and brand ego because people deserve simple conversation that gets to the point and puts them first. I’ve snapped a lot of pencil tips helping causes reach for the stars. But my favorite challenge is developing the voice for a mission that people can relate to, feel excited to support, and are ready to follow wherever it goes.

Blooper reel: One night while on an unexpectedly bumpy flight, I stumbled and rolled out the open door at the tail end of the plane. I had a parachute, but bouncing my way out and getting my legs tangled in the risers wasn’t part of the plan. My platoon found it hilarious.

Born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico, I am your friendly Salesforce implementer. One of my strengths is my ability to find the most efficient and productive path forward as your Tech Specialist, so you can get back to what you do best: growing your nonprofit. In my free time, I enjoy adventurous activities but not nearly as much as I love a good night’s sleep.

Hidden talent: I once slept for 26 hours straight.
