Full Capacity Fundraising exists because too many mission-driven organizations are stuck — not because their cause isn't worthy, but because the development program you used to use isn’t working anymore. I started this practice to fix that.

I've spent close to 20 years directing development at DC-area nonprofits — in housing, food security, workforce development, aging, and reentry services. I've managed multi-million dollar portfolios, built Salesforce CRM systems from scratch, written six-figure grants, and launched major donor programs at organizations that needed a sustainable fundraising solution.

I've also sat across the table from stressed Executive Directors who were doing development on top of three other jobs. I know what that pressure feels like, and I know what it takes to relieve it. My approach is practical, relational, and built for organizations with real constraints — not theoretical frameworks from a consultant who's never had to make payroll.

I hold a MSW and am based in the DC metro area, with deep relationships across the funder, government, and nonprofit communities.
