I don’t chase donations. I build systems that attract them. $30M+ secured. JD/PhD. Stoic. Woodworker. Tennis player.

Three pillars guide my approach to advancement: building durable systems, competing with discipline, and maintaining equanimity in the face of uncertainty.

Systems Builder

I build fundraising systems—repeatable workflows, clear metrics, and sustainable pipelines—that teams can run confidently long after I’m gone.

Competitive Edge

Tennis taught me that outcomes come from fundamentals and repetition. Fundraising is similar: consistent activity, clean execution, and composure win over time.

Principled Leadership

I control inputs, not outcomes. I stay anchored to the work: relationship depth, clear next steps, and consistent follow-through—regardless of the answer.
