Why do you do what you do?

Nourishing relationships is my true passion, and empowering others is my calling. Equipping nonprofits with game-changing technology software and tools to further their mission and positively impact our communities provides me with immense gratification. At Pursuant, I have the unique privilege to follow my passion and make a difference in the world.

When I’m not fundraising, I’m…

Outdoors, traveling, and planning my next adventure. As of late, I have been brushing up on my cooking skills, attending to my plant babies, and reading on my hammock as I indulge my inner world history nerd.
