Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is the world’s leader in the search for a cure for cystic fibrosis.

I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in History and a Master of Arts degree in History from East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania in 2007 and 2011. I have more than ten years of historical research experience. In addition, I have more than six years of nonprofit leadership, fundraising, grant-writing, collections management, program and event planning, and community relations experience. In 2009 I founded the Milford Borough Historical Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which provides community based educational programs and promotes historic preservation. In 2013 I was employed as an Americorps VISTA member at The Intersect Fund and I was responsible for prospect research, grant writing, grant management, and donor relations at a $2 million microlending organization. I recently completed a one year term as an Americorps VISTA/Development & Fundraising Associate at HomeFront, assisting with a successful capital campaign to build a $6 million facility, which is scheduled to open in 2015. I was the lead individual donor prospect researcher at HomeFront and also performed foundation and corporate grant research. Specialties: Grant writing, nonprofit formation, leadership, community event planning, historical research, collections management, fundraising, volunteer recruitment, board development, community engagement, public relations, and donor prospect research
