Lisa has led comprehensive annual fund campaigns across multiple channels, managing direct mail appeals, renewal campaigns, and new member acquisition efforts. Her data-driven approach to integrated campaigns has driven significant revenue growth and donor engagement for environmental nonprofit organizations. She has successfully grown giving programs through strategic communications, donor stewardship, and carefully designed campaign materials.
Lisa's strength lies in creating systems that work—from donor stewardship workflows to campaign production processes that ensure consistency and results.

“As a longtime supporter of nonprofits myself, I've seen firsthand the critical work these organizations accomplish. I founded my consulting practice because I realized that contributing my professional skills to enhance fundraising efforts creates far greater impact than my participation as donor ever could. This drives my commitment to helping organizations build sustainable, effective fundraising programs.”
