Clients and Testimonials


“"Like many small nonprofits, Resolve New England does not have a dedicated development staff. The organization opted to work with a consultant to support our fundraising efforts. Annie's guidance, 1:1 coaching, and on-the-ground support have allowed the organization to steadily grow our philanthropy program and formalize practices resulting in increased contributed revenue and deeper relationships with our donors.

She's equally comfortable coaching our Board and staff on best practices as she is analyzing complex fundraising data. Her versatility, lack of pretense, and true desire to be of service to our organization make her an amazing partner to work with."

-Jennifer Redmond, Board Chair, Resolve New England


“Working with Annie on a start-up nonprofit on a tight timeline has been a dream partnership. Annie combined her strengths in fundraising strategy and development operations to get us up and running fast. URMCC inspired gifts totaling $150,000 in less than a month. Annie's diligence in getting our donor database up and running created a seamless experience for our donors--who were responding to a need, fast. Annie's speed matched it and made our organization look great.”

-Tom Johnson, Founder, Ukrainian Relief Mission Charitable Corporation


“Annie is that rare breed of development professional who can navigate complex data systems with ease! Not only is she technically adept, but most importantly she understands how data can be used to increase staff productivity and serve as a decision-making tool for busy executives who are looking for concise, clear, and meaningful reports. After realizing that our data system was not suited to manage our newly developed Endowment Campaign and Planned Giving Program, Annie was just what the doctor ordered.

At first we considered purchasing an entirely new CRM to manage this project, but that led to questions around Annual Fund integration and requiring busy front-line fundraisers to learn yet another system. Annie quickly analyzed our CRM and used her creativity and breadth of Development experience to enhance our existing platform to make it work in the way we needed. She created user-friendly data collection and management procedures that everyone can use, in addition to customized reports – all without requiring any major (or costly) changes to our CRM. Working with her was a joy (I would work with her again in a heartbeat) and I am moving forward with confidence in the data management plan for our Endowment campaign.”
