“Kivi’s session was fantastic. The room was overflowing, so I ended up moving to another session. But I ended up going back to Kivi’s session, and wish I’d stayed the whole time! She needs to be in a bigger room.”

Participant at the Create Good Conference

“Kivi was amazing. Very detailed, thorough, deep nuggets of information for both intro-level and experienced professionals.”

Participant at the Create Good Conference

“I loved her personality! She got straight to the point and I liked all the examples she provided. I feel like I was getting advice I would get from a psychologist or something. This session really helped me rethink how I work.

“Kivi was our keynote and conference leader at the WNC Chapter of AFP’s annual training conference. The feedback we received was unanimous. Kivi doesn’t just make a presentation. She gives clear, straightforward, practical, achievable advice from one professional to another. She is the best in the business at interweaving marketing and fundraising. She is down to earth and approachable, does not overmarket herself, and is completely delightful and entertaining.
