I’ve spent years in the trenches of nonprofit development—crafting strategy, leading campaigns, stewarding major gifts, and helping grassroots teams turn their passion into momentum. I’ve seen firsthand how much heart small nonprofits bring to their missions—and how often they’re held back by one thing: fundraising that feels confusing, inaccessible, or overwhelming.

I started Feldspar because I’ve been there. I know what it’s like to love your cause but dread the “money part.” To feel the pressure to raise more without knowing where to begin. To crave real strategy—but not another jargon-filled webinar that misses the point.

Then I discovered something powerful: fundraising isn’t just about money—it’s about relationships. Once I leaned into that truth, everything changed. I realized this was my superpower—and that the organizations around me needed it most. By sharing what I knew, I could help small teams unlock generosity, build trust, and create the financial foundation their missions deserved.

At my core, I believe fundraising is about people—about trust, clarity, and shared purpose. When you center the donor and tell your story with integrity, you don’t just raise funds—you build community.

Through Feldspar, I help nonprofit leaders turn overwhelm into confidence, and uncertainty into strategy. Whether I’m coaching an Executive Director through a big ask or helping a team design a donor journey that actually works, my goal is always the same: to make fundraising feel doable, strategic, and deeply human.

Let’s make it easier—and more meaningful—to fund the work you believe in.
