Brings to Board

I've served on many boards over 15+ years. In that time, I've acquired a deep understanding of nonprofit management, strategic planning, board development, volunteer recruitment, fundraising, and marketing development. I'm able to help a board by providing expertise in many areas.

Hopes for a Board Seat

I hope to build on my current skills while serving on a nonprofit board. I hope to also become more involved in the Madison community and the community that nonprofit serves.
