September Donor Newsletter
I designed, wrote and sent this donor newsletter for September. We used to call it eSpirit but now it's called Faces of Hope to match our annual fundraiser and because it really does showcase the faces of hope our donors are helping everyday. I wanted this email to have a simple call to action of… Continue reading September Donor Newsletter
How to change your Pre header text in Convio
I think I've figured out a way to control what your pre header text says in your email, even when using Convio, a popular email software for non profits. Preheader is short summary text that follows the subject line. Many mobile, desktop and web email clients show pre headers to tip readers off on what the email contains before… Continue reading How to change your Pre header text in Convio

I worked with Becky to revise the language and make sure the photo featured diverse kids. I'm proud of how donor-centric this email copy is. After I sent it out, Nicole replied… Continue reading Operation Backpack Thank You Email
Facebook Live Tips
The first time I went Facebook Live was when I was at the Houston Zoo and these otters kept doing backflips in the water. It was amazingly cute and I freaked out. I wanted to shout from the rooftop and tell all my friends to look at these otters. So, I used Facebook Live. Fast-forward… Continue reading Facebook Live Tips

After work today, I went to the Easton Apple store and picked it up. First thoughts: It's so small and… Continue reading New laptop

Family Vacation in Florida
May 23-27 My mom's side of the family met up in Destin, Flordia for a nice beach vacation. We'd gone here 5 years ago and so it was fun to revisit and compare how the town had changed. Generally, it had grown more tourist-y and become a beachy Pigeon Forge. I went jet-skiing, para… Continue reading Family Vacation in Florida
You may have heard of me
Just joking. I was stoked to be mentioned in the Columbus Dispatch recently for a project at work. We've been working hard to spread the word that we've rebuilt our warehouse after a fire last year and are asking the community for donations. I wanted to share this Dispatch article where I'm quoted. My title… Continue reading You may have heard of me
