“engagement is what it takes to work with volunteers and also to create engaging events.”
For over 20 years she has produced more than 100 successful events all over North America and raised millions of dollars for nonprofits from her Los Angeles based production company. Some of her best advice is simple yet effective – make your volunteers feel like the superstars they are….
“I do not ever have an email that doesn’t either end or begin with – hey there, I, first of all, want to thank you for the time that you’re putting into this. I love working with you. I make them feel like superstars because they are superstars.”
She is a recognized subject matter expert and trainer, presenting on subjects such as nonprofit event planning, event sponsorships, committee and volunteer leadership, generational giving, and guest engagement.
