- Biography
I found my way into fundraising via my love for the arts, but I stayed because of my love for donors and the impact individual generosity can make on an organization. After time at the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Ballet, and American Ballet Theatre, I am thrilled to now be a part of University Advancement at Georgia State. Over my 15 years in fundraising, I've frequently heard, Oh, you don't want to meet with me. You should meet with someone who can make a big donation. A 'big' donation is within reach for most people. You can have a big impact on Georgia State. We just have to think creatively. Big, impactful gifts can be made over a number of years or with assets that a donor does not need during his or her lifetime. If you want to dream about the impact you could have at Georgia State, I would welcome having a conversation with you.
