I tell everyone that dance shaped my life. I've been taking ballet and jazz since I was three, which opened doors to be a dance agent and work in the fundraising departments of top ballet companies in New York and Houston.
With more than 20 years of experience, I specialize in helping nonprofit organizations and companies enhance donor cultivation through high-value experiences for their donors, audiences, and clients through events, corporate connections, and annual fund campaigns.
Like a dance, connecting donors and businesses to projects is a creative and fulfilling aspect of Little By Little's work.
My career began in university marketing and events, where I focused on donor cultivation efforts. For 10 years, I managed campaigns, large-scale celebrations, and sponsorship activations ranging from $1,000 to $25,000 for events such as LSU's Sesquicentennial, Fall Fest, Homecoming, and the Candlelight Celebration. During this time, I also collaborated with individuals like Nancy Little to promote the performing arts, enriching our community's cultural landscape. *Photos from LSU University Relations.
I've grown up dancing and spent a lifetime in the performing arts. For me, the arts provide a necessary quality of life; without them, life resembles a string of mundane Tuesdays. I’ve had the privilege of volunteering for ballet boards and have led donor cultivation efforts through membership campaigns for both New York City Ballet and Houston Ballet.
