I believe positive stories can transform our world. Let's tell yours.

My Mission: Equip nonprofits with the knowledge and tools to create sustainable giving models by building monthly giving programs for everyone to become a philanthropist.

Speaker, Author, Entrepreneur & MamaYou can often find me in my favorite sweatshirt and comfy pants reading books with my daughter, or drinking a glass of cabernet to wind down after the week with my husband and labradoodle on the couch bingeing Suits!

I grew up in Sarasota, FL, and graduated from The University of Central Florida in 2010 with my Bachelors in Advertising and Public Relations. My love for philanthropy started as a college student, working on the exec board for Knight-Thon, our largest student-run philanthropy supporting our local Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.

Ever since, I've traveled coast-to-coast working in the Big Apple and Los Angeles working with American Idol, Movember, Dress for Success, The Television Academy, and many more.

I believe positive stories of change can transform our world to be a better place.
