I work with mission-driven organizations to advance institutional goals through integrated advancement strategies, including fundraising, stewardship, and communications. Communications are employed as a strategic lever to strengthen relationships, clarify purpose, and support long-term impact rather than as stand-alone outputs.

The work below reflects how strategic philanthropy, donor experience, and institutional storytelling align across print and digital platforms.

Honors College, The University of Illinois Chicago
As part of a broader advancement and donor engagement strategy, I led the redesign of alumni and donor communications to move beyond transactional messaging toward inspiration-driven storytelling. Communications were aligned with fundraising and stewardship objectives, centering community, impact, and institutional need while integrating print and digital channels to support sustained engagement and measurement.
