Equal parts art and science is the best way to describe me and my work with nonprofit organizations. My blog is a place to see that in action. You'll of course find posts about building a better donor ask and using data more strategically. You'll also find posts on topics that interest me which at first glance may seem to have little to do with my work. But at their core they have absolutely everything to do with it. My hope is that as you read what's here you get to know me a bit and find something that sparks some clarity and creativity.
