The CauseMic Crew: A team in tune with your mission

I am passionate about helping you leverage Salesforce to better connect with your donors, volunteers, and partners as you grow. With a healthy addiction to learning and a degree in chemical engineering, I’m wired to find solutions.

International Navigator: I’ve leveraged the mass transportation system in six countries and five languages and survived to author this brief bio.

A classically trained statistician, full-stack AI nerd, and impact‑focused strategist, I love rolling up my sleeves with complex data. You can count on me to build AI strategies and solutions that are human, ethical, and actually useful.

The luck of the draw: As a kid I won a cruise off McDonald’s Monopoly stickers on my fries—now I mostly use my odds‑calculating powers for data instead of fast food.

I specialize in building digital solutions that help nonprofits thrive, whether by customizing CRMs, integrating fundraising tools, or developing custom apps and integrations. With a nerd’s brain and a nonprofit heart, I translate tech-speak into real-world impact.

Past lives: I’ve been a produce buyer, helped protect the Amazon rainforest, and once biked from San Francisco to Disneyland. I’ve also gotten a spirited toddler out the door before 8 a.m., arguably the hardest feat of them all.

I love helping nonprofits create clear, useful digital experiences. My work spans visual and user experience design, along with general creative problem-solving.

Hot take: Hiking uphill is 10x better than hiking downhill.

Hailing from a background in both nonprofit development and immersive experience design, I’m focused on your Salesforce org: designing intuitive solutions, building automation, training users, and above all, delivering a system that helps your organization meet its goals.

Influencer status: My cat has almost 4,000 Instagram followers, and most of them are other cats.

With a background in building marketing strategies for Fortune 500 companies and nonprofits alike, I bring data and creativity together to make your marketing campaigns shine online.

Just keep swimming: I swam from Europe to Africa, and still don’t think about sharks as often as our operations manager, Hailey.

Designer, developer, and general dilettante. If you need it to be on a computer and/or look good, I've got your back.

We all make mistakes. Sometimes we learn from them: I've played saxophone in a ska band. More than once.

With an extensive background in nonprofit development operations, I'm dedicated to making sure your needs are met at every stage of a project.

Sharks as pets? I named my dog Finley so I could call her “Fin.” I love sharks!

Far from my hot minute as a Hollywood literary agent and then New Yorker staffer, my journey as a nonprofit devotee has resulted in a diverse skill set involving fundraising at all levels. I thrive on crafting innovative solutions after a bit of deep thinking and look forward to helping every CauseMic client grow.

Life-hack maniac: I’m always on the lookout for the next tool or philosophy to make life better.

I'm the bridge between Marketing and Tech here at CauseMic. I'll cut through industry jargon and ensure your team is able to optimize for your goals within your tech stack.

Step aside, Michelin Guide: Need to know where to eat or drink in Portland? I've got your back.

Just call me your “technology wizard.” From Salesforce and beyond, I manage end-to-end CRM migrations, ESP implementations, integrations of all sorts and for all manner of systems, all the way up to full-scale digital transformation for organizations like yours.

Formerly known as: My nickname in college was Ruthless and Toothless.

I'm a builder and doer on a mission to help nonprofit leaders turn their passion for doing good into high-impact organizations.

When not on stage at a conference: You might catch me doing a tight five at an open mic.

Pulling from two decades of leading market research projects for Fortune 100 companies, I help nonprofits identify what motivates their donors to give.

How I refuel: When not nerding out, you can catch me slurping noodles from my favorite Portland food cart or Singaporean hawker stall.

I moved into tech consulting eight years ago after twenty years as a fundraiser, director of operations, and executive director of small and midsized nonprofits. I specialize in leading fundraising and program-management technology projects, especially Salesforce implementations.

Golden state of mind: I grew up in Chicago, but I was always meant to live in California. I came here after undergrad and now call the mountains of North Lake Tahoe home.

With years of experience leading nonprofits as an ED and board member, I help mission-driven teams sharpen their messaging and follow through on it. I’m at home guiding organizations through change, so growth feels manageable instead of overwhelming.

Best job ever: I was once a mural artist for the David Letterman Show.
