I became a Benefit Auctioneering by following my heart (this is actually a fun story, if you’re ever interested). I ended up finding a husband, starting a business and starting a family in one fell swoop.

It started with a small event for a small organization in 2008 and grew into a fully-integrated consulting and fundraising business. Along the way I was told by several notable men in my field that I wouldn’t make it on my own. I’ve clearly proved them wrong. I am an entrepreneur at heart, with business-owners on both sides of my family for generations. 

​

I graduated from a liberal arts college with a degree in Cultural Anthropology and a minor in Research Psychology.  I had no idea what I would do with these degrees. Turns out, I use what I learned nearly every day in my business.

I’m inspired to take what gifts I’ve cultivated in this life and use them in service to others. I like to make people happy, to make connections, to inspire others and to help. With all my “work projects,” my goal is to take my creativity and the lessons I’ve learned through my own experience and share it all as best I can, to help make the world a better place. 

So far–I think I’m doing a decent job.
