ABOUT ME

I’M PASSIONATE ABOUT HELPING PEOPLE AND GROWING A COMMUNITY

I grew up in a small town and am choosing to raise my children in one too (pop: 3,623). I’ve always been struck by the generosity and support that comes from living in a close-knit community when it truly matters.

I’ve been witness to tremendous acts of kindness and outreach by our community during some tough times for our own family members. It’s inspired me to want to give back by helping others who may feel overwhelmed when planning a benefit fundraiser for their loved ones.

Through Build a Benefit, I hope to provide ideas, resources, and support to help make your fundraising efforts a success.
