In her own words

I have spent close to 40 years working with families around their charitable giving, helping to ensure the sustainability of non-profits, and serving as a thought leader in the philanthropic sector here in the US and globally. I am passionate about helping donors create and implement meaningful strategies that align with their values and passions. I am deeply committed to advancing human and civil rights, environmental sustainability, and gender parity. I am also an avid birder and have traveled extensively around the world bird watching.
