About Andrea

Andrea is a grant writer who has spent more than a decade helping mission driven organizations secure support from private and corporate foundations. She loves the combination of strategy and storytelling that strong grant work requires, and she is especially passionate about helping teams clarify how they talk about their work so funders quickly understand both the need and the impact.

She helps organizations nurture strong, respectful connections with funders through thoughtful communication, clear reporting, and a deep focus on demonstrating impact over time, with the goal of building lasting support.
