Founded in September, 2008, The ANNswer provides fundraising and communications services to non-profit organizations. With 20+ years of experience in the non-profit sector, including senior management positions, I am pleased to be able to use my skills to help a variety of organizations meet their programmatic needs through the creation and implementation of effective fundraising and communications programs.

Whether you need a fundraising plan to address your organization's overall needs, or are looking for something more specific, like a great grant writer, or someone who can help you develop a major gifts program or write a brochure describing your organization's membership benefits, I may be "the ANNswer" for you.

On the communications side, I can help you develop a marketing and/or public relations plan, write a great annual report or a brochure that describes membership benefits, or help you update your website.

Using the extensive writing and editing experience gained in my non-profit career, I am also a freelance writer. My experience includes co-authoring "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Dangerous Diseases and Epidemics;" providing editorial consulting for two books; updating two editions of an e-commerce textbook; and writing on-line courses in grant research and grant writing for Powered, a division of Hewlett Packard.
