I'M JULIE, THE NONPROFIT MAVEN

As a former nonprofit leader, I’ve been in your shoes — trying to raise money, keep programs running, manage a million moving parts, and somehow still make it all work. It’s a lot. And it often feels like you’re doing it all alone.

I’ve spent 15+ years in the trenches of fundraising, raising over $20 million along the way. I know what works (and what doesn’t!), and now I help other nonprofit leaders do the same — with smart strategy, honest advice, and a hefty dose of cheerleading. No fluff — just real-world solutions that get results.

Whether you need a strategy session to get unstuck, a full fundraising plan to guide your year, or a hands-on partner to work alongside your team, I bring practical, personalized support to help you hit your goals — your way.

welcome!

JULIE IS A PROVEN SUPERSTAR FUNDRAISER, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS STEWARDSHIP AND DONOR-LOVE INSIDE AND OUT, AND WHO KNOWS HOW TO BUILD A WELL-OILED FUNDRAISING PROGRAM.
