What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, values-led nonprofit role focusing on donor development, grant writing, and communications with opportunities for measurable impact and growth.

I am a relationship-driven nonprofit professional with experience in coaching, fund development, donor stewardship, grant writing, copywriting, communications, and event coordination. I combine strong written communication, organization, and a values-led approach to social impact work, having generated over $30,000 in new funding through grant applications and campaigns while supporting province-wide crisis intervention and mental health services.

I build one-to-one relationships with clients and donors, craft clear, compelling fundraising communications and marketing materials, and maintain accurate records across funding streams and CRMs. I work well in collaborative, fast-paced environments, bringing equity-informed, trauma-aware practice to donor cultivation, prospect research, and campaign execution.
