Hello! I’m Katie.
Here to help you raise more so you and your organization can do more!
With almost 20 years of non-profit experience, I've learned what it takes to engage people and keep them connected to an organization and its mission. From individual fundraising and corporate partnerships, to volunteer leadership and special events - I've found success in both large and small institutions.
​
I'm a native Californian, proud to call St. Louis, Missouri my home.
​
Let's see what we can accomplish together!

Working with Katie was a pleasure! She has insight into fundraising from many angles and provided a bounty of practical advice, while understanding the constraints of a small shop. She created a tailored plan with our greatest strengths and opportunities at the forefront.
It has been reassuring to move forward with Katie's roadmap, knowing we are consistently taking action to focus on the value provided by donor retention.

Rachel Levi, Director of Development, EarthDance Farms
Katie stepped in as our Interim Director of Development during a time of transition. She helped us meet our short-term fundraising goals, and set us up with an incredible toolkit of fundraising templates and a fundraising plan for the coming year.
Katie is an absolute joy to work with! She is highly reliable, delivers results fast and is kind and passionate about improving fundraising for nonprofits.

Sophie Albert - Executive Director, North Valley Food Bank
Katie was exactly who we needed, right when we needed her. She floated in like a development-oriented Nanny McPhee—listening carefully to where we were as an organization, assessing with gentleness our fundraising gaps, and swiftly crafting and executing solid action steps to help us close out a particularly wonky year.
I can’t speak highly enough of Katie’s ability to listen. This gift was absolutely critical as we worked to implement new ideas while simultaneously fighting to find our way forward. She was far more than a consultant for us—she became and remains an ardent supporter of our mission in countless ways and a true friend to our organization.
