I understand your actual job.

Because I have the same job.

As we speak and for the past 25 years.

MY GOAL IS TO HELP YOU BUILD A PROFITABLE PORTFOLIO TO RELY ON YEAR IN AND OUT

.......and build an awesome career while you're at it.

We Probably Have a Similar WHY

I have a lofty WHY. I bet you do, too.

And I have so much to do.

You can relate, I know.

Throw in authentic human levels of self doubt..

And sometimes that overshadows my WHY.

Sound familiar?

I'VE SPENT 25 YEARS IN DEVELOPMENT TO DELIVER ON THE PROMISE OF A BETTER WORLD.

25 YEARS, 10,000 DONOR CONVERSATIONS.

I've raised hundreds of millions of dollars for STEM Education, medical research, social justice, arts and culture, and higher education. Not all by myself, of course. Along with other leaders, donors, beneficiaries, and communities, I've indeed made the world a better place.

I'm a hopeless nerd about social psychology and have been this way since I was a latchkey kid running home from school to eat peanut butter out of the jar and watch the Oprah Show.

I like to imagine that if Brene Brown and Gary Vaynerchuck had a development officer lovechild, that would be me. One can dream.....although my parents are the bomb.

The greatest joy of my career is working with development colleagues to build their skillset, master their mindset, and learn to lead from where they are. I truly get so much joy from working with people like you.

We can make a positive difference. But some of our old systems will go by the wayside, along with some of our comfort. That's why I'm so passionate about co-creating a better approach to frontline fundraising with you.


Ya ready?

A BETTER WORLD.

  • I'm your biggest cheerleader, but we'll explore hard topics. I'll call you out (kindly) for b.s.
  • I offer workshops, a newsletter, a blog, a YouTube channel, LinkedIn and Instagram to support our community.
  • I'm a unicorn advancement leader who still has a portfolio that includes discovery donors to principal gifts.
  • I wear a critical thinking cap but know that sometimes you just have to toe the line.
  • I'm developing online courses and planning for what comes next.

Successful Fundraisers on Working With Me

A colleague, a mentor, and much more. Anne brings the wisdom of experience and the vision for a more inclusive future that embodies inclusion and equity among donors, nonprofits, fundraisers, and beneficiaries to positively influence philanthropy.

Anne is driven on challenging the status quo to move this vision forward. Through her work, Anne nurtures the next generation of fundraising leaders to work with donors in a way that supports the organization’s mission while furthering equity. She strives to bring the most diverse set of voices to the table including working with staff at all levels.

In the time we have collaborated together, I have seen her deftly bring many diverse voices into a conversation by asking evocative questions and ensuring that there is space for divergent experience and perspective. Anne’s leadership style and authentic commitment to inclusion and equity are invaluable .


--Brenda S.


I had the pleasure of reporting directly to Anne during my time at the OSU Foundation and I can't recommend Anne's leadership, knowledge, and experience around development, fundraising, and relationship-building enough. If you are looking to develop personally and professionally in your career, having Anne in your corner is a tremendous asset.

Anne also brings along a vibrant personality and a great sense of humor to the table. During my time with the OSU Foundation getting a phone call from Anne was always a bright spot in my day. We both share a passionate interest in the outdoors, backpacking, and adventure, and through that connection, I have no doubt in my mind that we will remain lifelong friends.
